Axle puzzled

[prib]

Dvw was who brought it up, but thanks for everyone's help.

In response to the p and the d or Plymouth and Dodge is it possible that it's passenger side and driver side. Both of mine brackets only have one bolt hole for the leaf spring

 

[prib]

Could you explain this a bit more?

You did thanks.
So your car is bent then.
Or something seriously wrong with the spring mount area on the frame

Brackets are different I put them on backwards nothing spent or damaged except my ability to be a mechanic

I don't know the car's history, I think I took off original springs,had only these brackets to use, there is.750 difference between the two brackets I have on the car. I unknowingly put them on the wrong side. After I switch them back axle will straighten out of front to back.

You still have something not right. The 2 spring hangers should be the exact same side to side. The holes drilled in them to accept the rear springs are in a different location Dodge vs. Plymouth. Sounds like your car has been in an accident?

The brackets should be identical side to side.
That goes for every leaf spring vehicle on the road.
Not sure what you have going on there.

The picture posted previous of the hanger is an aftermarket. The originals only had 1 hole in them, just in a different location Dodge vs. Plymouth.

Should have noted that in the post.

Update, after measuring 68 Coronet front spring mounts 3 1/4" from bolt center to frame BOTH sides and it looks perfect, the 69 Coronets problem is somewhere somehow somebody has changed the correct amount with the 1 that's on there now, it's measurement is 2 1/2". Checking Mancini racing

Why didn’t u use the brackets that were on the car? Put them back on the car. Kim

Been so long I am not even sure the brackets can be put on the wrong side. Also, why would the correct brackets be a different length?

Maybe you have a former oval track car JK
