Finally!!! got the front wheels on and on the ground. Am in the process of setting height. Now for the math. Got one of those 3 bubble caster-camber tools. Need to turn the wheels 20 to the right-left. Don't remember that cosine-sine-tang. junk. BUt,,,, its basickly a triangle. I attached a 4' long angle to two lugnuts. How far will it sweep??? 20 degrees,,, solving for the oppisite side. Tanjent of 20 is .364 X 36" would be about 13.1 inches of sweep,,,???YES?NO??. Or .364 X 40" = 14.56 inches. Does this sound correct???? Thanks,,,PL
