Rear springs bottoming out

[comet_666]

I have a set of super stock leaf springs on my car and this also has the 3" spring relocation set up. Problem is the shackles are bottoming out on the frame sometimes. If I step on the gas the car raises up and the shackles can sometimes flip inboard like so / instead of \
Then the shackle basically rests right on the frame. I also have bilstein shocks on the back.
Any advice? I think I will add some pics today so you can see whats happening.

Thanks!

SS springs are shorter, did you use longer front spring hangers?

As soon as I took the pic I was thinking the same thing.

Now to move it..Should I lift from the rear diff with my jack?

jack up car & support under the frame, then use the jack under rear end to hold in the neutral load of the springs

Just was reviewing your pictures and something looks funny to me.  Is you car tubed and the springs relocated?  In you first pic I can see the front hanger and it looks like it's hanging off the frame and I think I see the mounting holes for the stock spring hanger location.

Also, it looks like the rear spring hanger is hanging off of the frame instead of the spring hanger bracket.  Looks like the frame was sectioned to include the bushing hole for the rear spring mount.

It has been modified. 3 inch relocation and a few other mods. I should have caught the spring mounting in the rear
