I can probably slide the heads down on the wheel clamps and get the beam under the fenders, but in order to measure caster I have to turn the wheel 10 degrees left then right that's were I run into losing the beams. I ran a bear systems for 25 years and it had the same issues.
I did a lot in my early years with a toe bar or tape measure,I would scribe a line down the center of the tire and measure off it and used a magnetic hub gauge on the wheel bearing flange that would measure caster and camber. I kept it because I didn't trust the new computer system and would double check it or when we had a bad storm it knocked out the bear system.
