HMM Is that picture tilted a little? The reason i ask is i think judging by the frame i think it is tilted and your shackle angle wouldnt be that bad (ofcourse it may be worse if it wasnt bottomed out) I think you are right when you said being an inch and a half up on the frame didnt help since it is a close tolerance anyway with stock shackles. In theory longer shackles would work but since your flat and long it may not work as quick and easy as it would if you were running lets say short leafs. Hmm i question if an inch will be enough as you hit bumps etc.
Here is a thought and I admit it may be stupid!!! I think your shackle reversal should have lowered your ride height by at least an inch or so so you could add an add a leaf to lift it back up to normal which would put an arch in your springs (unfortunately making it stiffer) and lesson your shackle angle and then the 1 inch longer shackle would probably be enough plus only giving a 1/2 of lift to add to the add a leaf.

When i posted that comment i had my head in my butt sorry. For some reason i thought that was the back of your FJ and it was actually your front solid mount!!! Boomerang shackles would be worthless!!!
