A shackle reversal will give you a better ride and handeling charastics.
When your tire hits an obistacle such as a rock, or bump in the road your tire will move rearward with a shackle reversal.
With the shackle at the front of the spring the tire is pushed forward into the obsticle, as the suspension compreses. This causes a much abrupt shock to transfer through the vehicle, and more feedback to the steering wheel.
