We found it by just placing a piece of the metal we were using from the end of A, then down to our frame, making sure when we rotated it it would clear the bumper. It was a on the spot trial and error type of thing. B will not actually touch your frame. Ours floats an inch or so in front of it. As long as the height of it is equal to or a bit below your frame, so that the bridge gets kicked under into your wheels.

Again, I will try go get measurements when we unbag for our 6 hours which would be this saturday.
