I did the same, George, I just had the plates - 10 each side - 1/8
thick - made up so that they fit *perfectly* and they were kind of
tough to get on - bolted em up at the track - got there late because I
was still drillin' 'em - and was running out of time at the track to
get any runs in. Remove three or four plates from each side and I
should be in high cotton!

Have mine set level at rest, and set the snubbers 1/2" off the spring.
Had to
build shims for the rear bracket. Then shoved them up against the axle
bracket
