The only "tool" of the day I can think of would have been an inclinometer to measure tilt of the axle (5 degrees).
From the Dykes manual,
Camber of front wheels should be approximately 1 11/16”. The camber is not adjustable, as it is provided for in the forging of the spindle. The only possibility of the camber being changed would be due to a bent axle or spindle or badly worn spindle body bushing.
Caster effect is given to the steering knucklet at the factory which is 5 degrees.
If front Axle is bent it should be straightened cold.
