Stupid rear shackle question

[speedfreakracing]

I bought the longer belltech rear shackles for the Ranger to achieve my lift. Question is, does anyone have a picture of a set installed? I installed mine the same way as the stock ones (opening to the rear, boxed end facing front) Just making sure this was correct, not sure where the instructions went that should've came with them.

I just checked mine and a friend's parked next to it, and we both mounted them the other way, as I'm positive the stock shackles were. Either way, I don't think they would be any interference unless you stuffed one of the tires through the wheel well.

That is the correct way to install them.

Here is mine on my BII.

On the belltech it doesn't, but the factory shackles have a boomarang shape to them.

Why does the opening go to the back? I have a set that go on after the PB Blaster has done its work

with the belltechs it won't matter

I agree. Come to think of it, mine actually might be on "backwards". Oh well.
