Re: '67 Chevy II Build - Betty.

damn sam, nice progress.

you didn't change out the bushings when you had the arms out? i would definitley get them changed and see where the arms line up. you could always build a spring pocket like a chevelle(monte) or impala(caprice) has by the frame rail where the spring would line up. i would be concerned with the gemoetry. can you take out the springs and cycle the axle through normal movement up and down? perhaps put the car on jack stands and see if you have any binding.

when you measure, do some cross mesurements and see if everything is square. i would say 1/16" to 1/8" off would be ok. the factory was around that in their assembly.
