Thanks guys, good information. I like the idea of getting it on a flat surface, maybe with the lower control arm pretty much parallel to the floor, then working from there. As you can see in the pictures, it's canted down way too far, which makes it impossible for the spring to seat where it should. If I get rid of the presumably 2" drop spindles and replace with stock, that should allow me to have about the same ride height I have and allow me to get the lower control arm closer to 90 degrees plus get the springs pointed in the correct direction. This would require either a shorter spring and/or relocating the top bracket to get the upper control arm correctly oriented. I'm thinking the top bracket is going to need to move up as bringing the lower control arm up a couple of inches would make for a very short spring. With the suspension loaded, the current springs are compressed to about 10 inches. Finally, I'm not sure what limits suspension travel at full extension, the shock?
