Hello,
A buddy gave me a set of front spring hangers that move the springs in for more clearance.
I measured them it looks like 1.25"
My question is I need to find a set of shackles and spring perches
Also what pinion angle should go with?
Looks like I will need to angle the pinion up slightly when I weld on the perches to make up for the height difference.
Thanks.
 
No one?
Worse comes to worse I will make some was hoping for some input,thanks.
 
Mopar makes a set of offset spring shackles - P4120075

The perches are basic, can get them pretty much anywhere.

If it's for an A body, it may move the springs ~3/4" max on each side.
 
Pinion angle should be measured at ride hight. That means all 4wheel and (tires you are going to run, example; 26inch skinnies in the front and 28.50 slicks in the rear. with engine,trans,driveshaft and rearend hooked up.you`ll need an angle finder,Hold on a sec. Try this; Go to Mopar performance,mopar chassis catalog 8th edition,(this is an old book)but im sure theres other& newer editions,see if it will show you anything.chapter;(driveshaft and axles)if not get back with me & we`ll pick-up wher we left off.

Yes you need to move the axle perches in. You'd lose most if not all the benefit of moving your hangers in if you didn't.
