Those springs did seem a bit steep, but then I'm CHEAP! LOL.

Sounds like a good plan if you have a set handy. Almost looks like you could use half of that stack on the ePay link. That is a heck of a stack!

I really didn't want to mess with the 3.42 anyway, and I bet you are right on the brakes. I am leery of getting a good pattern after the swap and this is an outdoor project right now. I am gonna order a set of those 73-87 saddles and play with that and also a backing plate spacer at first. Simpler than remove and add back the brackets. Another yard e-mailed me today to say they didn't have any of the Ford saddles and he looked at two of their yards.

You guys in the path of this storm? We're gonna get wet and have some wind down here. If you are, stay home! I need you around for ideas! LOL!!!!
