Need help: Bad shackle angle with SKY's double shackle kit and 63's
I'm doing a 63 swap. Running 2" blocks. I moved my front hanger forward 11.5". I bolted the shackles in the original rear hanger to see what I had to work with. My shackle angle is obviously terrible... Can anybody tell me what I need to do to make it right? Anybody have any experience with this kit? Thanks for your help!

I put chevs on my 88 and also had to move the rear shackle mounts back too. (4" I "Think") In addition to moving the front spring hangers forward.
Basically welded the new ones butted up behind the stock location. I didn't do double shackles though.
