Received my anti inversion shackles today and started fabbing my hangers.. Got them both done and installed them at the height I wanted the truck to sit in the rear. but dont know if they are at the correct angle. any ideas ? thanks Rick

looks good for now. personally i would move them back about .5 to 1 inch. as you add weight they will settle then be to steep. defiantly don't final weld till you have the rig loaded. And be shure to flip and redrill that military wrap. It needs to be at the fixed end.
 
the actuall angle looks ok .. but are unloaded .. when you load those springpacks .. you will end with no angle in your shackles .. ( more close to 90° or close to be parallel to the frame .. ) which means virtually no up travel in your suspension .. ( with plenty of down travel ).
