well here I am again with the questions....
I am trying to install the rear axle on the frame, sounds easy, but I
must be doing something wrong.
When I get everything all buttoned up one side is slightly higher than
the other.
There are two obvious telltale signs,
1. the u-bolts on that one side don't show as much thread as the other
when tightened
2. the angle of the leaf spring at the rear bracket isn't as angled as
the other side
I have installed new axle support rubbers.
I believe ( I am going to recheck it tomorrow) that the alignment of
the lower bracket is centered on the spring bolt on that side, both
sides for that matter.
Is there something I am not doing right?
It really does look like a straightforward reinstall, but even looking
at the rear axle stub for the driveshaft it looks like it is angled too
low for a good alignment for the shaft.
I don't have the engine or transmission installed yet so my eyes may be
decieving me.
Any thoughts????
Thanks
