Re: Has anybody here used a Chassis Engineering bolt-in crossmember on a Task Force?
a digital torpedo level is really handy for getting the accurate values of things like the lower control arm angles, the brake disc angles etc. they are usually magnetic so they will stick those items well. they can be placed across a longer straight edge to span the distance of the frame rails, etc etc
here are a couple of pics with some possible ideas and showing how the side to side level of the cross member can be checked more accurately by installing the lower control arm pivot bolts but leaving them sticking out far enough so the straight edge can be placed across the span and then the digital level can be placed on that to check.
disregard some of the obvious issues on that unit. it was installed and removed a couple times due to being the incorrect unit for the truck (probably boxed and labelled wrong)
you can see that threaded rod can be quite handy for helping you set things up as you do your mock ups.
