ABSTRACT:
A gauging tool used in measuring the extent of damage and needed repair to restore the vehicle frame/body to the original manufacturer's specification. The tool is especially useful with a frame repair machine by making the treadway that supports the vehicle as the datum plane and centerline from which all measurements are taken. The gauges use floating pointers which provide an immediate indication of the damage.
