Rear Shackle angle problem - Need advise

Ok I have a 1983 Toyota Pickup that I just installed a 7" Skyjacker lift on. The rear springs seem to be short causing a pulling on the rear shackle to the point it will go in reverse position if the suspension flexes to much. Obviously this will not work so has anyone dealt with this situation? I have attached some pics of current shackle position at normal ride height.

I am wondering if the Teraflex shackles would help???

Thanks
Garry

Contact skyjacker. Maybe wrong springs stock should be 47"
