Default DIY Alignment Tool?

I was searching for an old post by a moron w/ a Prelude that kept askin how to make his prelude the ultimate cornering machine. I remember one of them mentioned a tool that let you do your own alignments, and it was fairly cheap.

Anyone got a link to the site w/ that tool?

I made a set out of scrap plywood and made the slots on one really tight to keep the end of the tape measures from falling out. By carefully pulling them tight, I can run them without a helper. I ran a crossbrace to make a T shape to keep the wood from warping. They work OK and were free.

A cheap (read: not perfect, but ok) camber measuring device for those with adjustable camber.
