SHACKLE FRAME MOUNT CALCULATION STEPS:

1. After you find the desired shackle angle, determine the “sin” (pronounced “sign”) of the angle. (You can do this in google or using a calculator).

2. Take the “sin” and multiply by the shackle length you will use.

3. Take that answer and subtract it from the length of the leaf spring.

That will tell you how far from the fixed end to place the shackle mount in the frame to achieve the desired shackle angle when mounting your spring.
