Google Morris minor chassis dimensions, you will find the alignment data and a drawing.

That's ok, you didn't mention any specific datum points you wanted, so I thought they might be included in the info suggested. I used it for my chassis build.

I think the 2 new back legs I have welded in are to high I have taking a straight edge from the bottom flat of chassis under seat area out to the back leg then measured up to top of leg or up to shackle pin hole . this is size I need . hope you can understand what I mean as not good at describing things when emailing cheers

Ok, I have another drawing here, and according to that, if you draw an imaginary line through the centre of the front eye bolt and pass through the centre of the front rear spring pin, extend out to the rear of the van then the distance from this line to the centre of the rear shackle is 4 3/4 inches. You can get this line by stretching a piece of string through.
The distance between the front spring pin and the rear shackle pin (centres) is 43 3/32 inches.
