What is the maximum tooth sprocket you could fit on the back using a Deore DX rear derailleur?

That is the main thing I took from it yes because you appear to have checked the vertical alignment of the hanger and tweaked it (and well done for doing so) but then ruled out the alignment being the issue for your continued indexing problems.

I'm pointing out that you haven't completed the job fully and there is more to do before you can rule out alignment.

From the pictures you can clearly see that there are massive alignment issues on both axis so until you correct that no amount of hanger extensions, friction shifter or anything else is going to help.

I'm also out at this point.

That is all you took from my post? Just to pick at the things I haven't done? Well I am happy I dealt with the biggest issue.

What he's asking is why you only measured the top and bottom of the wheels and not the front and back, to ensure that the hanger is in correct alignment and not pointing in or out.
