After the upper control arms were out of the way it was easier to start getting an idea for mocking up front springs and hangers. Tacked a piece of 2 X 4 X 3/16 for the front crossmember to keep everything where tight before I lose all support.
The frame horns measure 31 1/4 and my springs will be 33 1/2 outside so they will be barely wider than the frame.
As stated before I will be using HJ60 springs with overload and one leaf removed. The are 40" center to center. This should keep me from inboarding the rear shackles. It will also move the axle ahead almost 4".
There looks like lots of room for the steering box and pitman arm.
