Now is the time to get it straight and true, and beef up the most  
stressed sections a little bit before popping the frame onto it.

Hello all,
Does anyone know the tolerable limits to frame measurements for TRs.  
I'm about to put my TR3 body back on the frame and things are reading  
a little out. I have a 3/8" difference from front axles to back, and  
on the short side, the right, it's about 3/8" up on the front corner.  
The car did have a couple badly bent wheels on it when I bought it,  
but it had no evidence of being in any nasty fender benders and all of  
the body panels were original. It doesn't seem like a real problem to  
me, but now would be the time to tweek it a bit and I do have access  
to a frame machine.


I'd appreciate any comments,
Dave H.
