Hi guys,

My 58 (3100)fleetside project is moving right along. I ordered my 4"drop with Sid, I'm getting the parts for the 350 conversion, and everything in-between.

I am going to tackle the rear axle next. I want to put it on top of the leaf springs.

In the photos, you will notice a bracket at top of the axle that's welded on. On the bottom, I noticed an attachment for the shock mount.

I want to put the axle on top of the leafsprings. Looking at my setup, how in the world can this be done? The weld on bracket on the top of the axle is in the way, and the lower shock mount is in the way. What do you guys think? Who has done this before on a 58 3100?
