Anyone interested in DIY front-end alignment?

I have a "Dunlop AG0/40 Optical Toe Alignment Gauge" gathering dust. Better part of $900.00 to get the same setup new. I'd consider selling mine for somewhat less. :wink:

Used this to set up FA/Formula Junior/FF geometry. Once in a while it got used for the Lotus cars, too. Along with a camber gauge.
 
This would be an ideal "club purchase" opportunity, kids. This rig can set up about anything with wheels.

Ten alignments and it's paid for itself!

They're hen's teeth, Mark. Just happens I found a hen with great dentition a few years ago. :laugh:
 
What I ~should~ be doing with it is set up in a parking lot on a Sunday and do CHEAP ($20) front-end alignment checks!

Our resident dentist coulda used this to put his TR into straight 'n level AT HOME.
 
ya know i was gonna say somtin about it being harder to find than snake feathers, but i kinda figured ya might wanna actually sell the thing...

It's slick, Art. Needs a nice level, flat floor to be really accurate but it works for Formula cars doin' some fairly high speed laps... for passenger type LBC's it's umm... nifty.
