I stuck three arms on the frame to thunk some more about the details. One thing I am thunking about is whether I should angle the arms so they come off the frame perpendicular to the long axis of the truck or just come off at 90 degrees to the frame (which is tapered). I suppose it doesn't matter in the long rum...er...run. I tied a string from center to center of the hubs to get a straight line. With the taper of the cab, frame, side step it's hard to eyeball a straight line. The string doesn't show vertical level because the springs are old and sagging in the front - but it does show a straight line down the side of the truck to see how far out to come with the arms.
