I'll scrape something together for you in the future. I can't help at the moment as I'm a bit busy with other stuff - sorry - but essentially I did my best to replicate the tools in the FSM. If you study them closely and then look at the parts on the car you can kind of see where the parts are meant to be level. The car, however, has to be on a level bit of ground in the first place for the DIY tools I made to work...

...as you can see from the pictures they weren't especially difficult to make - just lumps of suitable lengths of wood and then threaded bars which could be adjusted to suit what I thought was meant to be measured (information gleaned from FSM).

I didn't expect anyone would want to do this part of the procedure so I skipped over the subject a bit when I started the thread all those years ago. So count yourself as one in a million!

Don't leave that there - I'll take it to bits!
