what exactly are you trying to do? did you cut out all your stock suspension and forget to measure and mark centerline? DOH!!!

one of the better ways to set it up is to forget 'the measurement' and put the bed back on, line it up and center the wheels and axle in the wheel well and between the framerails when its layed out... and go from there. sometimes it might be off a little using stock measurements, since it was made to sit 14 or so inches higher off the ground.
this way you'll be sure your truck will look good.

yea that would be the best now.. in the futurre leave the laeafsprings on untill your bars are in place.

be sure to setup your lower bars parallel to the ground at ride height.
