The new hangers come with holes in them where the rivets would be. As long as the holes line up, you should be fine. You could measure from the other hangers too.

Hello all
After an inspection of my freshly stripped frame I have noticed the rear spring hangers on both sides seem to be out of alignment.  The inner tubes have broken the welds, though the drivers side appears to be tacked back into place, though not strait. 

The drivers side front hanger has a crack, but the tube is still attached.  It looks like the passenger front bracket is off center and appears that the frame is slightly bent.  I may try to gusset the frame once its back into shape.

Most likely I will need to replace the 4 hangers.  My question is does anyone have suggestions on how to straiten it all up?  I was thinking of using tubing to keep the new units strait with each other.

Any input would be appreciated.
Don
