Hey whats wrong with 60's tech ?? Some of us cheap guys still use it.

I agree that they mean use the longer front hanger not shackle. I did use the stock shackles with my 3400 lb SS springs on my 63. And I actually bought the Mr Gasket shackle kit with extra holes in it to use them and raise the back of my car about a 1/2" as it was actually a tad lower then I liked. I cut them off and painted them black to make them look like the stock shackle and they made no difference at all in how the car hooked. I use just SS springs and the longer extending MP rear shocks. Yes they are cheap 60's tech as they have no adjustment at all. But they work ok for my street car as it hooks fine and in running 10.70's its had a 1.50 best 60 which is not great but average for a leaf spring car with basically all stock suspension. It works for a low budget like I have been on for a while. Ron
