I am just in the process of doing the same as you, i've also made new front spring hangers. I have tack welded mine on with a small amount of nose down, i'm going to fit the wheels then drop the car onto the deck check the pinion angle and if it's not right i'll raise it up drop the wheels off, break the tacks, adjust it,weld them solid and put it back together. What width is yours, mine is 52", so i will need new wheels as my 8-3/4 was stock width, i used c.lines with a 7-1/4 b.s Mike Mike
