Did 4 front end alignments on my car since I owned it and wore out 3 sets of tires from people not knowing how to do old cars with radials.
My son did the last alignment and it's been good for a long time. Front end specks for factory settings are different when running radial tires.
Skosh charts work pretty good
There is an under dash antennae. I had my hand on one 3 days ago, should have bought it. I should go back and see if he still has it.There might be a magnetic base antenna out there somewhere. Radio Shack, where are you when we need you?
Indians hung in there to take at least 1 from the Yankees. Sets them up for the Gentlemen's sweep
Couple of floor tiles, some grease, protractor and a permanent marker
It’s definitely going to be a learning curve but around here it’s been hard to find shops that will touch the alignment on the older vehicles. I’m hoping by Saturday night to be able to take a stab at it. We do have a set of plates my father in law passed over to us.
Think I'd **** myself jumping out of a perfectly good airplane at 30,000 feet..
A buddy put 5:? Gears into his old 60 ish chevy, inline six. Kicked his buddy’s *** from light to light
Hmm.. i tried ceramic tiles, they shattered
You talking like the stick down plastic/nylon ones? might work
There's some write ups on how. Caster is the only thing that was kinda impossible to get
yeah, i just hate revving a motor non stop, feels like i'm beating it for no reason.. plus just going to the gas station people were getting pissed since i was doing 40ish in a 50 that people do 70 inA buddy put 5:?

Once it's aligned and i fix issues i can polly go a bit faster though
Yeah. The peel and stick ones work fine.Hmm.. i tried ceramic tiles, they shattered
I have actual plates but used the tiles and string the first time
yeah, i have offset bushings already installed and i think the max i could get was like 3..
yeah, i have seen people use like tiles with garbage bags in between instead of grease too
It's surreal... Especially at night with a moon.
My alignment machine has specs from the 40’s to 2016. I know it takes a little research to figure out the specs for radial tires.
It's surreal alright especially when you hit the ground with a thud
I bet it would be.
You see your shadow on top of the clouds
We are road tripping to you Frank if we can’t figure it out ourselves here.
Now that would be really cool to experience

All but hero around here. But don’t see grinder much. Usually see that for hot Subs. I think some places consider a sandwich that is normally served cold a grinder if they toast it.
