: If you folks can handle one more alignment question?
: Why not insert a pin into the tread at the desired height,
: (depending on what book you are using) measure, and then back the "A" up untill the pin is again at the desired height on the back side and measure again to check for the correct toe in adjustment?Or is there some fallacy to my thinking?
: Thanks again from another Model A novice.

Jim,
If you go to your local NAPA dealer you will find a great alignment tool.The tool is spring loaded to fit between the wheels, has a guage graduated in 1/32", and has chains on the end of the tool that provide the reference from the floor so you always measure at the proper spot.I think you can get this tool for about $80.It works great!!
