Bad move, #1 because Keith already told me to get the 67-72 chevy flip, 2# I had to drive another 35 minutes to take it back because the the leaf spring bolt hole was in the back half of the axle relocators and not in the center. I figured it might have worked since my 12 bolt rearend is out of a 1974 Chevy. I have it mocked up, just waiting to get my flip kit so I can weld in place the shock mounts where I need them and paint it too.

The hole is suppose to be offset and NOT in the center of the flip kit bracket.
It is that way, so it will move the rearend "slighty" rearward,... to keep the rearend centered in the wheel opening.
(and to help with the driveshaft length after flipping the rearend on top of the leaf springs).

lol, oh. I should have took a picture. It just looked too far back from center, almost too the back of the bracket.

Keith, this is here they some what looked like but the hole is about the right spot. The top one is the bottom of the bracket and the second is my side view
