Body Alignment
Body alignment may be accurately measured by
the following method. Elevate the vehicle to a level
position over a clean and smooth floor.
Refer to (Figs. 197, 198 and 199) and place the
line of a plumb-bob on point "A" with the plumb-bob
just contacting the floor. Mark the plumb-bob contact
point on the
floor,
Repeat the process at points B,
C,
D, E and F at both sides of the body. Snap a chalk
line between points as illustrated.
Compare the dimensions with the specifications. All
matching point to point dimensions should agree
within
1/4
inch.
IMPORTANT:
Care should
be
taken that
all
tho
diagonals compared represent the corresponding
measuring points.
In making any body opening measurements, always
compare the matching measurements
of
both sides
of the vehicle, All dimensions must be measured at
the welded joints of the body to insure uniform meas-
urements.
