I know that the offset spring hangers move the axle forward around 1/4'' compared to the factory hanger. My next measurement would be the front half of the spring to the center bolt. The new springs may have a shorter front half compared to the origionals. Id say your shocks are to short and should be replaced with a longer set. Will they "pop out", probably not, but its not a good combo. Mancini not knowing the answer, or better yet, giving a s@#t doesnt surprise me.

The only way the offset spring hangers move the axle is if their installed wrong. I helped a buddy weld in a set on his car and we used the front leaf spring eye hole of the original spring hangers as a guide for installing the frame boxes and the axle sets just exactly where it did before.

The HD springs don't raise the car enough to need longer shocks like SS springs do.
