I installed the springs in the hangers & bolted them down ,then I measured center to center it was 41-1/4" ,then I measured the axle perches they were 40-1/2" leaving 3/4" that in turn moves each perch outward 3/8" .the rear end should still be centered shouldn't it. If not how would you do it. Thanks for your help by the way.
