I mentioned a while back, while Rob Mueller was visiting, that we'd aligned
my GMC's wheels. I've been trying ever since to get around to posting
details of the equipment we used. Here it is:

There are no alignment instructions there, but there is a link to where you
can download a very complete study of wheel alignment by an engineer with
Hunter Engineering, the largest manufacturer of alignment equipment. The
mathematics that contains are rather daunting, even for someone who's sat
through as many hundred hours of math classes as I have. But there are
simplifications presented which make it easy to calculate caster from camber
measurements -- the only difficult part of wheel alignment theory.
