Attn Wabbit and/or ScottyC or anyone else TG Rear Spring Hangers

This or This and why or why not on a replacement for stock hangers on an 87 or any other for that matter. Both are priced the same. And are there any 19mm / 3/4" pre-drilled options not that I mind using the sleeves?

I am also assuming the slope goes towards the front and the tab goes to the outside of the frame rail. Does the tabbed ones push the springs outward? Is there any issues with the length of the sloped ones and the slope in the frame when placing the springs in the stock location and not relocating the rear axle backwards. Gonna assume both retain the stock pinion angle by being the same height as stock hangers.


Thanks guys in advance as I know you'll come through.

One on left fits better, lip goes to outside of frame, as the others are longer and don't fit the curvature of the frame depending on placement.

One on right does not necessitate removing gas tank to weld on, but I would anyway.

I use the ones on the left almost always.

Do the ones on the left push the springs inboard or outboard? Having hard time finding photos with either of these installed. I had a feeling the ones on the right were gonna need to push the axle back.

oh an as far as that tab, where I got the tab on outside frame rail was in the description of similar (don't know if they are the same) ones on Marlin's site.

Welded style rear spring mounts attach under the frame. Tabs along the side help in positioning hanger and provide additional welded support along the outside of the frame rail.
Thanks.

EDIT: Dang it you edited after I edited. Haha you went from inside to outside.

It doesn't push it anywhere, lines up under the frame as it should.

Project "Mascot" has those hangers with pics.

Thanks wabbit. I can't believe no one has asked about the differences of these before. Especially when they are the same price.
