My assumption: Your monoleaf spring was sold with the pin the right place to line up a modern axle in the fender. Your new OEM drop multileafs are sold with the pin in the right place for the original rear end to line up at the correct length for a torque tube on a factory trans.
Putting your modern rear end centered under the axle hole on the factory location pin will put it too far forward. Shifting the axle back to the other hole might work.

The measurements you reported earlier for front eye to pin seem to support this, the pin is further back on monoleaf

If you mount springs to frame front and back with the axle loose on both sides just sitting on the springs. With the yoke sticking out the same as it was before are the wheels where you want them in the fender? Where is the pin in the new leafs relative to axle tube and the two holes you have to choose from?

All good points. Just to be absolutely certain that I have the correct springs, I have taken measurements and photos and sent to the company to ensure I have the right springs. The longer u-bolts will be here tomorrow, but the spousal unit requested my assistance in getting ready for both Thanksgiving and her birthday (Saturday). I suspect I won't get to play again on the truck until Friday. More to come once I have the bolts.
