Default Chassis Level 68 Firebird

Hello all,

I'm working on my 68 firebird. Replacing the rear end and doing some other suspension related upgrades. I want to be sure the rear is aligned and square and while at I want to verify it's centered. I figured while I'm at it I would make sure the sub-frames are square as well.

I need to ensure the car is level (front/rear and left/right). I've got some drawings showing where/how to measure sub-frame and suspension alignment but it isn't clear to me where to place a level to make sure it's sitting level.

Maybe I'm making this too complicated but I would like to minimize the hard lessons learned. The car is off the ground on cribs and have made shims to get it flat.

Thoughts? Experiences? I thank you all for taking the time to consider my questions.
