Re: Front Axle Straightening
Ok, I found my note book. I had forgoten about the degrees for the axle, as it has been about 8 years since I have done the last Model A running gear.
I have the Bear set of alignment tools and I found a picture that should explain how to use it.
Years ago when there were more Model A spec's easier to be had, the number I found was 7 degrees.
It is easy and accurate with the bear unit.
I use a chalk to get all 4 rods straight, and look at the tops of the rods.
I mount the Bear tool and check for 7 degrees on the perch rods, and then move to the king pin rods, and check for another 7 degrees there, they should be the same.
