Why does my toe change when going backwards and then when I go forwards ?

Yes talking front axle . What components are we talking about rod ends are tight . I’m saying the toe changes an inch each direction I travel

Time to jack it up and see where it moves by pushing/pulling the wheels. Got to be something worn, bent or broken.

Pretty much it has to be one of three things...
Loose lug nuts
Worn inner or outer tie rods
Worn or loose bearings

Steering box might cause play in steering wheel but should not affect front wheel toe-in...

Or a broken C-clip that holds the whole lower axial assembly in place. :)

Look like the woodruff key slot at the top of the king pin is worn
