Thanks guys. I recently purchased a front clip for the pupose of using the leaf springs. After I got them home, I asked myself, "Why did I do that?"
Not wanting to admit defeat, I may buy a bushing/shackle kit and see how it goes.
I have an old U-joint press that may help in the process, we'll have to see.

It is not hard if you have a press like i used. | | |
