if im not mistaken, the all pro hanger can be welded on two ways, one moving the front hanger forward, one being the stock location. Maybe that could be part of the problem. How is the wheel position in the fender?
this is your problem. TO THE FLOOR and i did the all pro hanger swap on our buddies 81. the hanger goes two ways. i bet thats also why your shackle angle came out so far. from the pics it doesnt look like your axle moved that far farward either. so im going with that hanger is on backwards(stock location)
looking at the first picture though, wouldn't the axle need to go back to clear the draglink? Either that or the box forward, or more lift. Can the springs be put on backwards making the center pin be in the wrong place?
The hanger can go on either direction which accounts for 1/2"-1" total. Id mount the steering box as far forward as it can go and run it. Its a very common problem to have interference with the tierod and draglink with the steering box in the stock position. The short end goes to the front but Id doubt you have them on backwards.
when we put the all pro hanger on the gussets were facing forward. we also made it where the mains tube stuck out 1/2". it came out perfect
Its easy, just pull the box off the frame and move it as far forward and in the best position that will allow the pitman arm to clear the frame and the springs.
