Re: spring/shackle angle
« on: Jan 20, 2010, 09:24:38 AM »
Moving the shackle mount more toward the front of the truck right?  That way it will pull the top of the shackle forward and angle them right. Let me know if my thinking is right please.  BTW, I measured my shackles and they are 6.5" e2e. Is that too long?


yes you'll move your shackle mount towards the front of the truck.  I'd let your springs settle before I'd move anything though.  You said the shackle angle was good with the TG springs right?  Maybe once your springs settle some your angle will be better assuming TG and Marlin springs have the same dimensions.
