A method for the measuring of symmetry when in particular repairing cars including the use of a measurement bar comprising in each end a laser head that can be swiveled around the length axis of the bar. The laser heads can emit light beams perpendicular to the length axis of the bar. The bar is on a straightening bench (on which the car is mounted) mounted perpendicular to the length axis of the car. When the laser heads are swiveled their beams construct parallel planes on each side of the car from which measures can be taken to the sides of the car in order to establish if symmetry exist or how great the necessary correction has to be.

Method for the measuring and checking the symmetry of vehicle bodies, characterized in that the vehicle is fastened on a straightening bench, a bar provided with turnable light beam emitting means on its ends is mounted on the straightening bench, with the bar extending horizontally and perpendicularly to the length direction of the vehicle, which light emitting means being arranged to emit two light beams that fall in parallel vertical planes that are perpendicular to the length axis of the bar and parallel with the length axis of the vehicle, the light emitting means giving vertical measurement planes on both sides of the vehicle, measuring from each plane the distance to any desired point on the vehicle body using a simple rule or scale held on the desired point with the scale held perpendicular to the measuring plane, rotating the light emitting means on a first side of the vehicle so that the light beam falls on the scale, rotating the light emitting beam on the second side of the vehicle to make a corresponding measurement on a scale positioned on a corresponding spot on the second side of the vehicle, and comparing the measurements on both side to assure symmetry of the vehicle body.
