I think he is wanting to build something similar to the RE control arm drop brackets.

First, do you know how to weld?If not start on non-structural parts first!
Second,Drop brackets are fairly complex with alot of offset/jogs,might want to try an easier project!

IMO this would be a complete waste of time... if your going to fab something to help out your CA angles, why not fab up some midarm mounts or LA mounts?

ya i can weld, ya im confident enough in my skills, i built my own x-case crossmember/ tranny skid. it has held up so im not afraid. is it really that hard? i really wanna build em' cause they seem too expensive to buy if i have skills on my welder.

This may be one of my next projects, so I'll be looking forward to hearing/reading about your progress. Hopefully, you can post up some pics as things progress.
