E body offset spring bracket questions

E body offset spring bracket questions - 02/26/12 07:09 PM

I had a set of offset spring brackets and shackles from my Challenger when I put a b-body rear in with SS springs. I recently swapped a Dana 60(B-body) into my wifes 70 Cuda and at rest, the shackles are all the way to the rear of the car to the point of being against the frame. It seems like I remember the B-body Dodge Vs Ply, SS spring hangers were different lengths because of WB. I cannot find my MP chassis book, but is this what is happening on the Cuda? Do they make a different offset front hanger for the Cuda than the Challenger? Thanks!

I make Barracuda and Challenger 1" offset spring hanger/shackle kits.

Both kits use the same hangers, but the Barracuda version incorporates short shackles so the springs will clear the rear valance. In other words, there is additional clearance toward the top of the valence.

Thanks Doc! I was hoping you would see this. Do you sell the shackles seperately ? If so, I will call you monday and order. Lee.

Yes, I sell the shackles separately.
