I am completing a mini-tub on a 69. I have a 9" with Hoctkis leafs that I am using.
The questions I have are "what perches do I use? Do I use the original style perches or can I use a flat (Ford, Mopar) style perch? Does one have an advatage over the other?
I noticed the DSE perches are a flat style that bolt on. I think the multileaf would be the strongest.

Depending on the spring method and axle housing you use a stock one might not fit. You can use a universal or a DSE one. Advantages....the DSE one bolt locks, you can adjust later...stock style welds on.
