    Well got custom hairpin rods made and front end is mocked. Still not completely tight and rear end is just mocked up to inspect.
    Looking for input to make sure i measure everything right.
    Measurementsi need to do-
    1. Measure both I beam ends to frame(same location on each side) on both sides to make sure I beam is true.
    2. Once I beam is set then measure center of hubs front to rear, then X pattern measurement to each hub to make sure axles are center.
    Am I missing anything else for measurements? Caster is around 6-7 degrees right now. Should I have more at this stage or is that something To adjust later after I have a rolling chassis and can factor in ride height?
