Have a question! I want to know if i have a shackle flip already and i buy those 6" hd shackles would it make my pinion angle way off?
 
Well i have a chevy 3/4 shortbox stepside. and i already have a shackle flip and 4 inch blocks so the pinion angle going from my drive to the rearend yoke is just about level.
 
The longer shackles will cause the pinion angle to go up slightly, should not be a problem on a shortbox. I had to shim mine down wih a longbox.
