Hi  Jim

Thanks for the reply!
Does tis work the same for the rear end  swing axle.
I also found a video on youtube by  Cugir.




It's very similar. I normally use an angle finder (found at sears, harbor  
freight, and other good hardware stores. This allows for fine tuning. The 
Cugir  videos are probably the best to view, so you can see what's going on. 
Use the  Bentley with the video, and you should good to go. Just be aware you 
might need  to make multiple moves (inner, outer, and spring plate 
combination  moves) to get it even. I only say that, because my 71 Notch was sitting 
1  inch lower on the left, and I had to take that into account when I 
lowered the  right (trying to get it even). I think I moved the inner bar 2 
splines 1 way,  then the spring plate (on the outer end) 2 the other to get what 
I was  after. This is where the angle finder came in handy. ;^)
