Thread: Chassis Allignment Racks vs Slide Hammer

My new resto project:

https://www.google.com.au/search?q=r...w=1024&bih=644

was hit passenger side front 1984 & has been off the road since. Bonnet is a write-off but another one came with the car.

By putting a rudimentary straight edge accross the front, I estimate the passenger side bonnet mounts are about 50mm behind the other side.

I should add the bonnet tilts forward a la Jaguar XJ6.

Does that make it a candidate for a stretch rack or will a big slide hammer do the job?

The panel affected is only attached to the the boot floor (rear engined!) with no cross bracing

Yeah! Good point.


I bring it home tomorrow. I will have time to go over it properly then. Looking at what happens on youtube,

I don't have much to worry about.
