Adj. Spring Perches

Ok guys where do most of you put them? I thought I remember reading that most people put them on the rearend itself for ease of adjustment?

I have the Wolfe adjustable spring perches on my car and they are mounted on the rear end tubes just to make them easier to get to.

I put them on the housing. It doesnt matter where you put them. If you put them on the housing you have to cut the factory perch off and put it on the body.

We weld it to the plate with the idea or weldiing it to the body. If you weld it to the housing, we can leave the normal plate off of it or weld a smaller plate. But either way, if it is installed on the housing, you will need to modify the top mount to fit the small diamter coil over spring (if that is the direction you are going.)

But, it will work and function in either location.
