Frame Centering Flag Calibration
Calibration of the Frame Centering Flags is done to ensure that we have the most accurate
theoretical centerline of the vehicle.
1) Pick the four most outside points of the
frame
where the Frame Centering Flags are to be
mounted on the vehicle. Making sure that each pair (near & far) is even side to side, also
decide which side of the frame the Flags are to be mounted on either the inside or the outside.
2) Next measure all four Frame Centering Flag mounting points for frame to body clearance.
3) Calibrate each of the flags to clear the vehicle body by taking a measure and straight edge
and adjusting the Frame Centering Flag Magnet Mount to an inch increment marking on the
flag scale.
Note:
Attach the measure to the Magnet Mount where it will make contact with the frame.
Also when using the TR-28 Wheel Clamps, it is a good practice to include the clamp in the
Frame to Body Clearance measurement.
The ideal result is that when the Flags are mounted. Both distances between the near (those are
the flags that are closest to the Laser Guns) and far flags are the same. When this is achieved
the Flags are calibrated.
Finally
: Assembly and Calibration of the TR-44 Level Compensator Bar
The TR-44 Level Compensator Bar allows you to make Caster & Camber measurements on
Non-level surfaces. Once this is calibrated and locked down there is virtually very little need to
re-calibrate it.
1) To assemble the TR-44 Level Compensator Bar you will find in the crate a long bar with two
pieces attached to it. You will need a 3/16” hex key. When assembled it should look like this:
