Hotchkis springs and DC offset shackle kit

[joes68340s]

I just bought rear Hotchkis springs. Problem they wont bolt into the offset front spring eye bracket. DC bracket uses larger bolt. Anyone have the offset bracket thats done this. I have an Idea how I am going to deal with it I just wondered if anyone else has dealt with this yet. Thanks

You might measure the difference,go to the hardware store.Look for a flanged collar spacer.Slip on both sides of the spring hanger,trim to fit.Or got to a machine shop,they can turn spacers on a small lathe. Not cheap,but it should work.

Im just going to drill another hole in bracket for the new bolt size. Trouble is it will lower the car a little more on top of the 1 inch drop with the hotchkis springs.
