[QUOTE="WHITE TRASH1, post: 1056191, member: 15951"] Measure from the center pin to the center of the front eyelet along the arch of the spring and put the hanger roughly 3/4" (if the springs have good arch to them. If they are kind of flat don't go so far forward) That will get the axle where you want it, you can always drill the perches or make the hanger with longer plates so you can move the axle forward or back if needed. For the shackle jsut put the springs and hanger in, bolt the axle to the springs then put a 2x4 between the spring and frame and let the weight of the rig down on it. That will tell ya where it'll end up with a shackle in there so mark the frame sleeve location accordingly. ;) [/QUOTE]
