Shackle Angles
 

I have a 95 4Runner with the 3.0. I am adding a 4" TG front and 5" TG Rear. So I got the front done and have the leafs in the back hung. But my question is that there is too much angle on the shackles. I placed the front mount 1.5" behind the square hole in the frame, and the rear shackle mount 6" from the end of the frame per the Trail Gear instructions. I think I need to move it back, but let me know what you think. I will create a Build-up as soon as I finish the rear. Thanks

mine are the same way. They work fine

is this the post settled angle? TG springs settle quite a bit after soem usage

This pre settling. That picture was taken the first time the springs had the full truck wieght.

is it me or do you have more angle on the passenger side?

they look fine right now to me.

did the instruction take into account the extra wieght of the 4runner? is it instructions for a pickup?

I got the dimensions of where to place them from Scotty at Addicted Offroad. Here is a link to where I double checked them from Trail Gear. It was performed on a 4 door 2 gen 4Runner like I have. http://www.trail-gear.com/vbulletin/...ead.php?t=5153 I think the different angles is from the camera because in person they both look like the driver side pic. I also have an e-mail in with Scotty and I will let you all know what he says about them. Thanks again for the help.

i don trecall my rear springs settling too much your probally fine
