Put them directly under the springs :flipoff2: preferably with the axle centered under the truck.
Tape measures, they work. Amazing ;)

hmm that might work but I dont know how much wider the full size is but i'll see if i can get an acurate reeding
BTW it's a 76 not a 78 some one change the grill
Okay. Measure the whole axle
measure the width between your springs
then subtract that width from the axle width
divide by two
put that on either side of the spring on center.
BTW thats not a "might work" thats a guaranteed to work. It really doesnt matter where the old perches were, in fact cut the things off so you dont worry about trival stuff anymore :D

Nope, since the backing plates a constant as well.
