I'm an independent front guy, this is my first solid axle spring replacement. I have a question about the spring perch on the driver's side. The centering spring pin hole is almost off of the perch toward the rear?

Does the spring centering pin really sit all the way back there? The passenger side is centered right over the axle tube, like I'm used to. I feel kind of strange putting that spring pin all the way back on the drver's side rear of that perch.


It's an easy question but I don't have an answer. Also there is a wedge piece that corrects the angle which takes up the space that the pin would sit in the perch which further confuses me because it makes it seem like that hole in the perch is not used on the driver's side.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,

McQ
