That makes sense. Interesting too in that they hammered their way down on the perch and no longer walk around.

As to the angle/shim vs. welding the perch at a different angle issue, I'll give that some thought. I'm hoping that
the chevy spring mod will be the last rear suspension mod. (Laughing while typing).

I do have access to a milling machine as well as a friend with one, so I can get wedges as needed.

The considerations for me are whether to have the rear of the truck torn apart for that much longer while wedges are made or weld in perches at the needed angle and then add wedges on later mods. I'll probably end up doing the modifications sometime this winter.
