      Anyone make an off set shackle for more exhaust clearance on a 68 F-body?

      I know DSE make an offset shackle for putting in their minitub kit. Does anyone else make one for more exhaust clearance? I'm not sure how much you can move the springs before you would have issues with the fuel tank.



      Thanks.

      I own the DSE ones and they are very very nice. Exceptionally well done.

      No doubt the DSE ones are awesome. It looks like they slide the springs an inch or two right? I was just wanting maybe an extra 1/2 to 3/4. With my 2.5 inch exhaust I have less then a 1/4 of space between the fender and spring. This rattles like hell when I hit bumps. I'm surprised other don't have this issue.

      After some searching I forgot the whole deal with moving the perches on the axle in.
