Am I missing something? How are you guys able to read these articles? They are all grainy and impossible to read for me.

It's easy to read. I just went down to the rec room and got out my hard copy of the February,1989 issue.

I used to use strings until I figured out two 10 foot lengths of angle iron are easier to use. Not only do they not move when you measure from them to the rims, but the magnetic camber gauge sticks to them.

Click the link that says, "Read the rest of the story" and then click on the pictures, right click to "View Picture" so you can see it full size.
