So... about this Tenhulzen alignment tool??? This looks really interesting. I'm tryin to read up on it.... does it provide for adjusting camber, caster, & toe-in???
Did you find it easy to use? I'm really pondering doing alignments at home.

I'm happy with it. Yes, it does all Three. It just takes some time, but seems completely repeatable as to the readings. As long as your in no hurry to get the alignment complete, as you need to recheck readings after every adjustment. I just wish that I had put the original $ for the first alignment into it, but, it sets ready on the shelf for the next time. ( corvair front end next, making shopping list now )
Barrist Hmmmm..... thanks, if it's one thing I have it is time. Sounds like a good thing... I was going to get an alignment done so this might be worth it.
After being told by most of the shops in my area that they don’t work on “antique exotics” I’m seriously considering learning to do my own alignments, especially on my Corvette. This may be a nice addition to my tool box.....
Kicking around the garage this weekend, this came to mind...........
Am I Completely Insane ? Or, if it clears the air cleaner ?
Up for Debate, was just a Thought...........
Have a Great Day,

WOW! believe it or not I had the same thing in mind. Have had that piece sitting around for a couple of years. What did you sue to attach it? I ended up with this, however may change.

Reason: addition
I was just going to replace the mirror bracket. First screw-up, I ordered one for a convertible. That can be fixed, a little trimming, and drilling a hole. Well, so I thought, Screws for the old one are frozen bad. Spray liberally with PB Blaster............Will revisit tomorrow.........
1/4” to the left will cause major problems when trying to align your line of sight for proper mirror adjustment.
There have been several threads from forum members regarding their issues when relocating to the left.
The proper fix is measuring exactly 1/4” to the right and 1/64” inch across the vertical plane measured from the door seam. Lol.
