Frame Conectors instructions

I thing the pinnion snubber beating on the floor pan for the past 20+ years, is what has cause the front, of the rear sub frame, to bend inward that 1.75 inchs.

Talking with a friend of mine, got me thinking my measurement are off..... the car is suspend off the floor by the suspention. My car sets nose down. It is several inch lower in the front. So i'm going to have to reset it so its on the same plain as the garage floor. Then measure it all over again.

Have ordered a shop/chassie manual off of e-bay, should be here next week. Then i will know i'm using the right numbers.
