Default Ride Tech Air Bar Weld on Four Link Brackets ?

I am in the process of adding a Ride Tech rear Air Bar suspension on a 69 Camaro. The question I have is, I am starting with a bare housing, so I ordered the kit with weld on brackets. I noticed the leaf spring brackets on original housings are angled in to the front spring mounting brackets. Would there be any advantage to moving the weld on 4 link brackets toward the center of the housing so they would be square with the front mounting brackets. Also if anyone has had any experience with this let me know. I will also call Ride Tech in the morning to ask their recommendation.

Thanks

Just move them in until everything line's up perfect,shouldn't need much.Ask For Darren Schilling if you call RideTech on Mon. Scott Mock.

Default Ride Tech weld on brackets

Thanks Scott, I also called ridetech and got the same answer, it took about an inch on each side, got them welded in place last night. I really like the weld on brackets makes for a professional looking job.
