Had alcan springs make a pair of leaf springs with the orbit eye. The springs are amazing. I then used scissor shackles. I then removed the stock shackle hanger and used a piece of rectangle rim stock and used them as shackle hangers. The springs are much longer and I pushed my wheel base back to a little over 98 inches. I bearly clear the rear gas tank at full compression..
