A method for confirming the dimensions of an articulated connector while it is still mounted to the end structure of a rail car is disclosed. The connector is measured by use of a gauge secured to a reference point on portions of the connector. Another portion of the gauge is aligned with a non-reference point to determine if the dimensions fall within industry standards.
