Well mine were there when it was put together and cleaning my glasses, putting them on I found what was left if the pins in the front. What is funny the rears are rock solid no rust. It's on my sig line Rusty you need to barrow my glasses. LOL

Yep look at a front axle no pin in the axle itself only the rears. The only bolt that would come into play is the one that holds the front spring pack together. So I guess the top perch could be locked into the spring pack but nothing to hold the bottom or top perch to the front axle. New bolts...

If you look at a front end there is no locator pin on the axle just the rears and just the clamping force of the U bolt. I would worry more about someone cutting the 105 frame and welding it to the Deuce frame just so they can run 53's. I would worry more about home built perches or lifting...

Well if we don't blow smoke and we have done a lot of trucks then we would know where to relocate the pin. So we remove the axles drill another hole, thread it and screw in another stud. That way when we go to place the axle on the bob there is no measuring and we do nothing but tighten up the U...

Over thinking it maybe. If the u bolts were loose enough to go side to side then as soon as you hit the brakes the axle would walk all the way back to the spring hanger. Do what you feel is right.

I worry more about an axle sliding on the springs than I ever would going side to side. That is why I use the correct perches and new correct bent U bolts. Do what ever make you feel right.

Why would you need to weld the Deuce perches. When the locator pin is used on a non bobbed truck the pin just sets the rears in the correct spot no guess work no measure when replacing a rear. The perches have tabs that cup the axle both top and bottom and prevent it from going anywhere if you...
