Some folks turn the leaf springs around which will supposedly put the spring center pin close to where you want it.
I used my old rear end and went with a later pumpkin.
....on my 37 I did just what you mentined. I made a plate with holes to fit over the center bolt and then drilled another for the "offset". I have not had any problems and I "stand on it" quite often!
Just remember, meaure twice, cut once. | | |
