Are you sure they aren't backwards??
what springs where on it before? maybe chevy 63s
Well I sure hope not. I put them on with the arrow towards the hard mount, just as I did with the front ones.
I ask cuz it's happened before. Were there directions included that said which way to mount them?
Have you put full weight on them?
This is what I used to install mine. http://www.cruiseroutfitters.com/tech_OME_leaf_tech.html
You have them pointing the right way. Mine look like that unloaded but with the bed on and a little weight they are almost 90 degrees, still not the angle I want. I guess OME makes them a little shorter length to help them be the right shackle geometry when they are loaded down. I carry a 200 gallon water tank twice a week so this was desirable for me. I may end up taking the to two stock leaves from my old packs and replacing the top two emu leafs if I don't like it. I have seen pics of them on 1st gens with a little weight and some miles though and they look more acceptable. I am in the same boat as you so I hope they work as is. I haven't got a chance to use the truck yet though as I don't have my t-cases or drive lines in. Soon I can give you some real feedback.Can we see a pic of them with the weight of the truck and a couple hundred pounds in the bed on them?Here are mine with the bed on, bumper and a spare tire and some junk in there...
