Spring eye question

Ok, it could be the angle and all that shiny paint, the shackle mount bushing centerline on brackets I've measured are around 1 7/16" from the box face. It looks much farther fwd.
in that photo, and from a functional/dynamic stand-point, it is better than close to straight up as mine were. I did not move the springs in, but flipped the frt. hangers and fabbed a
couple of shackle mounts that moved the bushings up 15/16" & forward 3/16", the shackles are tight with the spring jacked up near flat. If I have to, I'll massage/whittle a little
clearance. Yeah, some companies make the main-leaf w/the eyes rolled down under, lifting the leaf the dia. of the eye minus the leaf thickness. At some point, I will be removing
the shackles and putting sliders in, but these will do temporarily.

I have sliders on my '69 with Caltracks which worked out nice and might have been a better choice but I wanted more of a stock look on this car. If they had just made the main leafs an 1 1/2" shorter to compensate for a flat spring pack all would have been good.
The point I was making from the beginning was about the situation I had with Eaton Spring and how they treated me after the sale and when unfortunately there was an issue and that they would only correct the issue at an extra cost.
They have a nice web-site and sound nice on the phone BUT if there is an issue be prepared they will not let it be their issue. My conclusion they are arrogant F--n asses!
