make my own rear flip kit?
im thinking about just welding up some new spring perches on instead of goin out and paying a bunch for the real kit. What would be the best way of doing this? anything to look out for? what should the pinion angle be? thanks for any help and suggestions

Based on my experience, pinion angle should be approximately 1-4 degrees down from the driveshaft centerline to keep the u-joints in "phase"
