Q Jet Secoundary Rods

Mike Pearson is 100 percent on the money with his response. I bought a Beachy tool a few years back and Mike (Beachy) told me that at that time, they still had a few and would happily sell them.

LSM had a hanger checker - I'll post a picture later. Not sure if they still make it.

I spoke to the folks at Beachy's in Kokomo, and the gentleman who created that tool has retired. I left a message at the number I was given for him, and I'm just waiting on a call-back. I'll update y'all when I have more information. How many folks would be interested in such a tool if it was made available?

I use a LSM tool. Saw it listed on their website. QJ-100 hanger alignment tool $39.00

Forum Folks that might be interested in an easy solution to measuring QJet Hangers:
Easy to build out of scrap stuff. Center piece is 1/8" aluminum but could be steel or whatever. Bottom is built from couple of pieces of 3/4" x 1/8" angle iron so it is easy to keep upright when used. Will include a few photos for reference. Most folks do not need this kind of accuracy but it is easy to use anyway. Soon as I figure how to resize the pics that is.
Measure from the top surface to the pin (0.067" diam) with dial caliper.
