    Ok, then I suggest leaving the brackets where they are. If that's full droop on those long travel shocks, then I'm happy with the shackle angle

    Oh on the opposite side that's compressing, I got it now. So are you wanting to lower the shock mounts on the axle to allow more up travel? Hitting full droop as it sits now should be good test for shackle angle

    See post #29. The brackets are designed to use factory rivet holes to bolt in. But the brackets can slide down the frame and you match drill new holes, but a few things:

    -My brackets are 2.375" (60mm) wide like Taco/Tundra springs
    -The frame is tapered so the brackets get closer the farther back you go, should be fine 2 inches back
    -you will run into bumper mounting holes if you are using those.

    Edit: What vehicle are the springs from? Here is a site you can check spring center pin spacing.

    Tundra 28.56F/31.88R http://www.sdtrucksprings.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=7670

    I didn't read the whole thread so I apologize but they came off a long traveled fully caged ranger but have been told they are f150 deavers. I know I can cut my current mount and re weld just figured this might be a good alternative and much stronger than stock? Thank you for your replies. I'd love to get this just want to make sure I can use it for my application

    These brackets are thicker than stock, and have less force on them. The F-150 springs should be 2.5" wide, but the bushings may be 2.875 wide like the Toyota's and these brackets

    I can't say yes or no, you're looking at changing every dimension of the spring. It's probably doable, but too many variables for me to say yes to that
