Hey Newbomb Turk,
Glad I could help you out on this matter! As for the tabs/L Brackets that are located on the front side of the axle, I use a neat little bracket that Ed over at New Age Motorsports designed. This little bracket just bolts to the bottom of the axle using the spring perch bolt and nut. The look is just like Milner's axle without having to weld the piece to the axle. PLEASE TAKE NOTE, if you are going to use a Magnum axle you MUST use this type of bracket as you are not supposed to weld on the ductile steel as the weld will not really hold to the abuse. However if you are going to spend the BIG $$$$$ for an original 32 heavy axle then you can weld on it if want to, as this axle is made of forged steel but I would just stick with this KOOL little bracket if I was you. You can contact Ed at info@newage-motorsports.com for this bracket. As you follow this build you will find out that I use New Age Motorsports a lot to help me get the things I need for this build. I use Ed to do this as he is one of the only guys out there that was willing to help me build what I wanted, everyone else just wanted to sell me parts off the self which in my case would not work!! I hope I answered your question with out get to long winded ??? Below are a couple of photos showing this bracket.
