shackle reversal for full lenght front dana 60 on scout II

[Fernie Najera]

I've been skimming thru most of the threads looking for answers and found that the collective knowledge of this forum has been extremely helpfull. But I regret to inform you that I have been left with even more questions now than when I started. But here goes.
I am interested in your shackle reversal kit but I am wondering if it is the right item for me. I have a full lenght Dana 60 front from a Chevy that I want to install. Question... The bar that goes across the fangs is it long enough to accomodate the inch or so that I need to widen the space between the spring perches? And if not, should I buy the fangs by themselves? I welded a plate about 1/4" thick to my frame where the fangs should go. If I leave it as is would it affect the pinion angle? I understand you can also shorten diff's, what would be the cost to shorten the ones I have Chevy Dana 60 and 14 bolt both from a dually but I have changed the hubs to single wheel hubs on the Dana 60.

Ordered the shackle reversal fangs yesterday. I just wanted to say thanks for the promt service. Just a few hours later I received confirmation of my order and shipping details. Must say you guys are on top of things. Thanks. Be assured I"ll be buying more items from you for my Scout.
