    After asking a million questions to many experienced hot rodders I know, I split my wishbones and mounted them to the frame.
    The front axle needs to be leaned back to 7degrees.
    Then you see where the bung and rod end is in relation to the frame.
    Make a plate and weld it to the frame then drill the hole where the rod end needs to be for your axle to be at the right angle.
    To get the correct angle you need to have the engine/ trans/ wheels/tires in place. I hope this helps. This was my first hot rod build and it drives great[​IMG]
