Info missing from the drawings on page 184, but easily sussed by checking the details of ones for sale from parts vendors.

also don,t forget that the wishbone brackets & shock brackets are different widths, even tho they are made of the same thickness steel.

no need to shut up advise is good advise and it helps its just that in the book it don't show the thickness of the steel but it shows the widths in nice big pictures so that i cant miss unless im blind

and you right there are some people that have swapped the brackets around and they only saw that after they fully welded it now thats bad
