[QUOTE="monstaru, post: 1538104, member: 17086"] Welp, I took bunks advice and added the back plate. I had a hard time matching the angles and the tube slot. This is the first plate I made. [URL=http://s61.photobucket.com/user/monstaru/media/Toyota%20stuff/IMG_6218_zpsd1d3ba5e.jpg.html][IMG]http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h56/monstaru/Toyota%20stuff/IMG_6218_zpsd1d3ba5e.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s61.photobucket.com/user/monstaru/media/Toyota%20stuff/IMG_6219_zps6d65ed2f.jpg.html][IMG]http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h56/monstaru/Toyota%20stuff/IMG_6219_zps6d65ed2f.jpg[/IMG][/URL] I was way short on the front side for the spring hanger. It was lopsided actually due to the compound angle. So after figuring out that the slot would not work with the top measurement different from the bottom measurement, I cut another hole. I cut that hole smaller than the first hole(1 5/8 as opposed to 1 3/4). and had the depth to the front pretty dialed to were I could set the plate in and rotate the front down, and hit where I wanted to. Knowing I was gonna have to make a shim to slide in from the bottom and be substantial enough to weld to.

I got the cope way better then the first time.:eeek: [URL=http://s61.photobucket.com/user/monstaru/media/Toyota%20stuff/IMG_6224_zps9e8f67a6.jpg.html][IMG]http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h56/monstaru/Toyota%20stuff/IMG_6224_zps9e8f67a6.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Anyways, had a few hours, and thought I would share. cheers [/QUOTE]
