That gap looks like it's a good 5/8" thats more than I have ever seen on a front hanger. Maybe it's just the way the pics is.

That gap looks like it's a good 5/8" thats more than I have ever seen on a front hanger. Maybe it's just the way the pics is. I don't think it's 5/8th, but it looks normal. What we did was fill the gap with pieces of scrap metal then weld to make contact. And by the way, I agree, this isn't "that other board". We're all usually pretty friendly and patient...as long as it's not a Presidental election year. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> 84Yota: Are you referring to the front traction bar bracket thingie?

The springs have the pin slightly forward of your stockers, which means they mount the axle to a different spot on the arc. Brian K. Gallus I have nothing important to say.
