Ok...bringing up the shackle reversal again...and wanted to know what was the correct shackle angle "at rest"/flat on the floor?
Just a FYI, this is for my 90 YJ, I am looking at the kit below, and plan to drill a hole in the frame, and weld in a piece of pipe for my top bolt on the rear shackles. (Any tips on that is welcome...is there "normally" a bushing in there or just a grade 8 bolt "loose" in the sleeve/pipe?)
If I had to guess, the shackle needs to be able to move in EITHER direction (for stuffing vs drooping)...but prob MORE towards drooping? Thus, it would need to point slightly towards the front, say 11:00?
