Pic 1. Axle finding it's way home again. EEK, look at that shackle angle at free hanging droop. Yep, it got even worse once the axle dropped onto it.
The axle stayed near the stock WB by leaving the hangers as far forward as possible ( which I'd prefer they not be) and drilling the hole in the perch 1.25" more rearward. The DIY u-bolt flip has it's center hole offset 1.25" as well.
Yes, I had to cut out a section of that friggin stupid outboarded exhaust to drill the frame for the sleeve. It will go away fully at a later project.
Pic 2 is the current shackle angle with everything buttoned up. Gonna need to go longer, ya think?
Question here: With the axle being able to droop so far (see previous pics above) I see inversion being a big given, do you agree? Could I adapt some Cruiser anti inversion shackles to my 3" wide needs?
It still needs measured for shocks, and to make some DIY quick-disco sway bar mounts for the sway to go back in.
