An inclinometer of some type. A digital one is best. A straight bar long enough the reach front to rear, and across the tires. A carpenters square. A marker, and a ruler.
You can use these to do a simple alignment that should get you to a garage. I use these at the track if I feel I'm not tracking right or the car feels twitchy. You might be surprised how close you can come this way with a little practice.

That is true! When I rebuilt my suspension, I tried really hard to eyeball things so that at least the toe-in was close, and the camber was sort of equal. I was very gratified to get the printout from the alignment guy that showed how close I was! He told me that except for the camber on the front, everything was within factory specs!
