Adjusting the PHB

i just installed my adjustable phb and now i need to adjust it to be centered does the rear have to be in the air for this? or the gound the tires??
i guess the best way to center the rear is to get some lines and tie some hex nuts to them and tape them on the rear fenders?

Yep, simple and cheap to use string and some nuts and measure from the rim and not the tires to be more accurate. Have the axle loaded, which means rear tires on the ground or on ramps or hold the car up by the rear axle and jack stands.

tie a big hex nut to a string, string should be like 24"-30" ( you need two one for each side)tape the end of the string onto your car's outside fender , let it hang down past the hub caps then adjust the PHB so that both wheels are perfectly straight
