I am building a custom frame.
WB is around 86”
Unfortunately, measuring centre pins with all four main eyes bolted in and having the frame upside down (springs unloaded)
I am 3/8” or so out of square including a bit of measuring tape sag
When I was measuring the actual frame corner to corner I was within 1/8” to 3/16”
It’s all handmade by me so when is good enough good enough? I don’t want the axle dog tracking down the road but I’m not really sure how to fix this.
I haven’t moved my leaf springs around to determine if it’s a spring issue. I guess that’s the next step?
My main eye mounts are just tacked in place but measuring square on these I am within a 1/16”
