I guess this is kind of my build thread atm.  Gonna post a full build thread with pics some day.  Cant type all that well since I my thump got between a hammer and a piece of steel. 
Anyhow I managed to sorta fab some new rear spring hangers.  I thought hey BIGGER is better right ?  To say the least I dont think I will ever have to worry bout these hangers.  My welds are getting much better since I learned a trick to make this low power HF welder work for me. 
I also got a hold of a drop arm for my steering so now I can make u turns again.  Take a look.
How does my drive shaft angle look now that I moved my axle forward 1" ?
I now need to fix the right side shackle location since when I put it on it was late and I measured wrong. I think the shackle angles are decent. 
My truck is sitting higher in the rear since I moved axle and dont have my heavy bumper on yet.  I need to finish welding it.
