Re: Barn Find 442 W30
With the body off frame Mark started to do a frame alignment. He removed the springs and replaced with steel tube cut to length to achieve the loaded ride height,along with using correct size tires. A number of adjustments had to be made using laser alignment equipment and a pulldozer.
Mark used original frame charts and modern allignment methods to pull and straighten the frame to specs. There was no evidence of major damage and a lot of the mis alignment may have come from sagging and un even storage over the years.
