RE: A-Body Axle Choice?

["Earl H. " <earlh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jim,

Just grind, cut the old perches off, get a new set and weld them on.

It is a good thing to check the angle of the pinion in relation to how 
the pads are welded on to the rear end. I have a nice big welding 
table and a jig to do it, but before I built all that, I just removed 
one side, left the other side on so I could get the angle the same, 
then after I welded the new one on, remove the other old one.

There are a million ways to do it. You want a pinion angle between 
6 to 4 degrees with springs.

That's to narrow the B-body perches for the A-body?
