Once you are at the 1" mark ..... read the indicators...... and note which way they moved ..... meaning in towards the center of the car or out towards the outside of the car...... very important to know which way the plate moves....easy to get confused.....

I have to put my hands together infront of my chest with my index fingers touching and act like my chest is the dial indicators and stand and my hands are the plate... then I go thru the motions the make sure I understand just what is going on.....

Then you write down the amount the gauge moved ...like going into bump the hub will move in towards the center of the car so the gauges will read lower than the 1" setting we started at..... and what we write down is the amount the gauge moved .... like .090 In or out ...which ever way it moved..... '

And you do the same thing on the rear gauge..... read the gauge to see if it moved in or out and then how much..... write it down.....

We'll write it down for the 1", 2", 2.5" marks in Bump and the 1" and 2" marks in Droop...
