Thats what I plan on doing. I've got it mocked up in place, with trailing arms and springs installed. But it looks like the trailing arms may be pushed in or out slightly due to the spring pressure, and may be causing the distance between perches to be incorrect. I'd like to try and match a stock 12-bolt perch distance to be sure everything sits in the right place.
