We used a long bar in place of the rear axle (since my axle is out) and set that perpendicular to the car as a place holder. we also used string and ran it parallel along side the car, and used another bar across the front. from this we measured diagonally from corner to corner to get the axle lines square to one another.
I didn't want to assume the car , or the subframe was perfectly square from the factory. After all, they were hand assembled parts that are 40+ years old.
We also ran one of those pointer lasers (the kind with a wide fan beam) down the middle to establish the true center line of the car.
There are alignment holes for the subframe/ body, but again, I'm not entirely trusting it.
I'll try to post a pic tonight.
