Rear leaf hanger ??

[Nu2Mopar]

If I flip the front hangers (to lower the car) on the rear leafs, will it move the rear end forward in the wheel opening as well?

no

The bolt pattern doesn't allow you to flip the hangers. The bolts are wider on one end than the other so it doesn't fit when you flip them over. Just buy new hangers with the extra lowering holes built in. You can get them from a bunch of places such as Firm Feel, Mancini Racing, etc.

Many have flipped hangers, you just need to slightly elongate the holes. This modification has no other effect on anything.

It only takes about 10 minutes to elongate one hole on each side to get the hanger to bolt up.

Thanks for the replies, the reason I ask is because I did flip the hangers and I also bought new leaf springs from Mancini. When I put it all back together, I can barely get a finger between the body of the car and the tire? (at the front of the wheel opening) I wonder if the spring bolt (holding the leafs together) is in the wrong location?
