Adjust dropouts on *both* sides when tensioning belt?

[DanRichman]

I was being very careful when I tensioned my Supercharger's belt recently, even tightening the two dropout bolts to the proper torque after adjusting the tiny tensioning screw. Then I noticed (duh!) that there is an identical dropout on the non-drive side -- complete with tensioning screw!

Does that mean the non-drive side dropouts have to be adjusted to correspond with the adjustments made to the drive-side dropouts? We're talking hundredths of an inch here. I can't imagine failing to make that second adjustment that would throw the hub out of alignment.

But then again, this is German engineering.

Thoughts?

I always do them both and ensure my wheel is perfectly straight when finished.

How do you ensure that?
