Chaz: Alot of this is going to depend on what grille shell you are going to use. Have you figured that out yet? It might sound strange, but the shell will sort of dictate what you need up front to hold it in the right position. As for the twisting thing, you probably will be mounting the rear portion of the springs in some sort of bracket that is mounted to the outside of the frame side rails?

Draw up something that looks like what you have in mind and post it. We won't laugh at your stick figures. Well, not too much anyway.
