alright guys I got my frame stripped down and painted for my full width 44 swap from a 78 bronco. I have coil buckets from a 77 f100 to space the coils out to the full width.

my problem is I marked center on the factory buckets and it looks like the 2wd coil buckets are offset 3/4"(i.e. the drivers coil bucket sits 3/4 further towards the rear of the frame than the passenger one). Is this true or did I screw up measuring?

Also where did you guys find was a good place to measure from to make sure the new coils are placed evenly?

thanks in advance
jason
