ABSTRACT:
A gauge apparatus for measuring the displacement of components, particularly automotive components. The gauge includes a support member adapted for secure attachment to one component, such as an automotive wheel. A transverse gauge bar is slidably interengageable with the support member and carries a rotatably gauge member at one end for measuring the displacement of the gauge member with respect to the gauge bar. The apparatus can be used to check the alignment of Macpherson strut suspension systems as well as wheel caster, camber, toe-in and alignment. A Macpherson strut straightening apparatus is also disclosed.
