Go to CIRCLETRACK.com look at tech how too.There are 2 articles about squaring chassis.They deal with squaring rear axle but procedure should be the same for straight front axle.Hope rthis helps Gregg

The squareness to the chassis is of course important (measure a bunch of different ways, including diagonals to make sure you have it straight), but don't forget to set the caster on the initial setup.

The camber is built into the axle, and will have to be adjusted (if needed) by an alignment shop. The toe is adjustable after you get it a little further along. If you don't take the caster into account at the get-go, it will be a headache.

So do you still need Larry and I to weld it up for you?
