I got some front spring hangers for my blazer, to put on the back spring perch of the rear axle. This way I can use my stock springs and not have to buy new ones. But since I'm already drilling new holes to position that rear bracket, should I move the axle and more the front perches for the rear axle as well? I'm thinking about moving it back?

Or should I just leave them where they are, and cut the frame shorter?

Leave the front perches where they are, you will have enough fun as it is trying to get the 6 rivets off each side of the back.

that was confusing... so, you wanna move the rear spring hanger? hangers and perches are different. dont move crap unless you need to. do the tires rub the fenders? since your gonna hack i bet not. why dont you just make a build-up thread to put all your questions in. one for your blazer and another to tell us what all you find wrong with your ferd instead of a thread on each topic.
