Did you install your own hangers? Did you cut it to get the notch?

N/ALS1 Yup, I installed my own hangers. I didn't notch the frame if that's what you are asking....

I got the 6 degree shims installed tonight and it seems to be working great! The pinion is pointing down (relative to the ground) about 1-2 degrees. I beat the hell out of it and didn't feel any vibration or hear anything out of the ordinary so I think I am good to go!

Thanks for all the help everyone!
