---Do you have a pic of ‘spring perch boxed’?
Here is one picture, hard to see real good, but essentially you just need to support the open ends of the spring perch. They will crush (or curl might be a better word) on the rear open portion. Then the rear diff can go into positive pinion angle on launch.
My fix was a quick fix but what I did was use some 3/16" flat, and filled in the rear open portion. When I installed the ladders I left the spring perches on the diff.
Hard to see, but the rear perches are closed in on the ends. Keeps them from crushing.
The pieces I welded in was approx 2" X 2.5" X 3/16" flat.
See the rounded perch. The open end of the perch caved in allowing unstable and changing pinion angle on launch.
