locating leaf spring sliders

Ottmundr said

Do you have any drawings or notes on the fabrication for the slider mounts you made up? I have the materials (1/4" steel plate) sitting at work ready to be cut and welded. Never mind, I found your photo with dimensions. Thanks! I'll be looking to get these fabbed up in the near future!
Have you considered some shims to get that angle for the slider?

Yeah, all I did was those dimensions, I really didn’t draw them up first I just got to cutting and welding.

I probably won’t shim them, I actually bought a set of the Calvert sliders that already have the angle built in so I’ll either use those at some point or weld up a set of brackets that have a built in angle. But they work fine as is, and they’re not exactly real high on my list of projects so I’ll probably be running them as is for quite awhile
