My shackle is pretty close to the yellow angle, it works good and rides smoothly. No science here, it just where it landed after moving the upper hanger forward (by pivoting it on the front lower rivet/bolt hole).
Looks proper, what springs did you choose?

Gonna have to steal your shock mounting method for the rear!!!
Those tall towers will twist up the frame pretty quick if they are not braced to each other. The easy thing to do is run a bar across to them. I’m going to brace them by going down and across the bottom of the fuel cell and tie it all into a fuel cell skid plate.
Superlift 2.5” lift 52’s. They gave me around 6” lift and ride / flex good, I’m happy with them.

I am thinking of attaching to my cage instead of frame.
That would be my first choice. Since I made those nice wheel tubs I don’t want to pierce them with a hole.
Your rig flexes very well.
Is it licensed for the street?Thanks, maybe one day I’ll take it out again.
Oh yeah, licensed and insured. I drive it some, it’s fun. I just haven’t had it out wheeling in a couple of years. A mud park has opened up pretty close this year so I’m going to look in to a bikini top so we don’t get rained on. 
Looking good!
Really can see how much lower it is.
Boy, this isn't 1988 anymore, is it?
Low is the new high
got an opportunity to give back to some of the people who work tirelessly all year to volunteer on the Rubicon Trail. This truck broke the frame in half at the shock towers so I fixed that and tied everything into the rollcage so it won’t happen again.
