Doing it the primitive way
 

I hope it's perfect:rolleyes: maybe I'll double check it with the stick:cool::D

Ya think I'll be dog legging:eek:

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

we can only wish we had equipment like that....or access to someone who knew how to install it on an A

do I see some custom brackets going on there ?

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

Is that the KR Wilson 4 wheel alignment tool?

Not very sporting!!! But hey, if you've got it, use it ;)

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

deep dish wheel extenders that rest on the spokes so the heads clear the hub caps.

adjustable arms to grab the tires...

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

I'd guess that's a little more precise than my two yardsticks clamped together...;)

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

I see something is in the red! Is that the camber or toe?

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

I set it as best I could with a dubbie Gauge then put it on the rack.. It was approx a 1/4" toed out..
All steering & suspension compnents are tight...

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

Mitch, how much does spoke orientation matter on your set-up? Also, how much would a spoke need to be bent to affect a reading??

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

Since the rack does not have the program for a 1930 Model A I punched in a different car, it pulls up the specs for that car and that's why it's red....

I can still see what the readings are and adjust since I know what the specs are for the A

I can make a custom vehicle and enter the specs so I can use the bar graphs but I didn't do that yet

Brent
Nothing will affect the reading

You do a forward rolling compensation which is approx 4-6" onto the front turntables. That calculates any issues ,,bent wheels etc,,etc.. And compensates for it automatically. The heads do not even need to be centered on the wheels as that is compensated for also..just slap them on and clamp it to the tire treads

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

It's a wonderful device!

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

Pretty slick !

1/4" toed out. How did it handle ? Did you notice it ?

Is there a left camber problem ? Or, is it just a camera shot angle ?

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

It actually tracked pretty good toed out , the camber is fine...

Did you buy it @ Harbor Freight & HOW MUCH?

Been there, done that.

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

Ben Hur would have be jealous of those fancy hub caps. Technology has sure brought us a long way, eh?

Re: Doing it the primitive way
 

Forgive my ignorance, but what is a "Dubbie Gauge"? I have a home-made curtain-rod gauge that I am pretty happy with, and appears to give me pretty accurate measurements.
