Is this right ????

[wasted wages]

Installed new rear flip and springs....

I reversed the flip brackets ( as steve at ORD said to do ) from driver side to pass side. to move the shackle hanger back 1 inch.

the shackle link (between the hanger and the spring) seems
to be very close to the spring on the front side ( 1/4" )

The instructions said to mount the link with the closed end facing the front.

It looks to me that the flip bracket needs to move back on the frame 1-2 inches....

What do you think ??

i say spin the shackles. when thay flex out hard might bend or break a main spring leaf.

the angle looks basicly o.k. slight kickback.

X2. I would flip the shackle around, too, but angle is OK. If you moved the hanger back more, you would risk it getting flipped up against the frame after the axle drooped.
