Thanks for your help. I emailed Proffitts and they responded back very quickly. We almost got it done. 95%.
My front hangers are closer to the front of the frame than your picture shows. Also my holes for the sleeves ended up having a partial large frame hole behind them. We had to cut out circles and weld them in before drilling the inside hole with the hole saw.
I couldn't do the dowel method, b/c I have an engine in my cruiser and couldn't see between the holes. I relied on my calibrated eyeball. Hope it works out ok.
The way the saginaw box was mounted, there was no lengthening of the frame horns. I ended up cutting a corner out of the 3/8" (or 1/2"?) saginaw mounting plate to allow the hanger to fit in there. It worked out just fine.
Hope my shackle angle works out ok. All I lack is mounting the saginaw box again, pulling out the front leaf spring bolts and greasing them (I forgot) and hooking up the rear shackles. I just got pooped out and had to quit.
