System for Alignment

Recommended Posts

Im coming to the end of a frame up rebuild.. trying to get my rear axle and front wheels aligned.. Does anybody have a kinda checklist/procedure/system for getting this done? Ive read a little bit of the manual on setting toe in and what not, but i got other issues at this point. Im just looking for some helpful tips on what to measure or something..iono.. throw me a bone here guys lol

I always square up the rear axle first while adjusting the chain. Take a measurement from the axle to a arm and make sure they are the same on both sides. Then you can straighten the handlebars and adjust your tie rods. I use 2x4 as a straight edge. Hold the 2x4 against the outside of the rear tire. You need to adjust the tie rod until the 2x4 hits flat n both tires. If you front is wider then the rear just use a tape measure.
