I worked with enough straight axle setups to know the pivot for the front hair pin radius should be on the same plane as the front wheel centerline. Oh, I see there is no weight on the chassis and when motor and body are installed the front end will drop and the pivots will line up. Oh, wait that's just a model, not a full size hot rod. I was fooled by the pictures! Maybe you get that front axle dago'ed and it line up the pivot points! I'm just an old hot rodder.
