okay, so the latest problem...
when we got the mog it already had both spring hangers removed. what's the best and most accurate way of aligning the two new ones?
cheers!

Re: Front spring hanger alignment
im guessing that this is for the front spring hangers for the rear axle, given the front of the car is on torshion bars?

Re: Front spring hanger alignment
According to Haynes, the distance between the OUTER ends of the spring anchorage bolts should be 42 and 23/64ths of an inch
which is apparently 107.59 cm (whatever those are). No measurements for the front to back location tho'
