Scotts Hotrods IFS in my 51

There is not a whole lot of information on these coilover ifs for AD chevys out there floating about the internet. Trust me i know! So i figured i would do my part and document my progress and maybe get some help and reassurance along the way. This is my first build to this extent and thus my first ifs install.

Anyways, made my decision and less than a month later had the kit sitting in my garage after working with Justin and getting a pretty good deal.

Fast forward to today. Got my parts unboxed and started some preliminary mock up. My intensions before all these ifs shenanigans started, was to send my axle out to be dropped and thus i had removed my axle without marking the centerline on the frame. A little digging and i found the centerline of the stock axle to be 20.594" from the end of the frame rails or 18.281" from the center of the shack le hole in the frame (care of the factory assembly manual). Here is a shot mocked in place...
