looks good. I bet a 4" shackle would clear fine as the factory shackles are pretty short. But a longer shackle in the back is better for your caster angle anyway.

63genIII - off topic; did you experience more wheel hop/ axle wrap after putting the 63" springs out back?
I added soft 63" springs & 4.56 gears w/ posi. this combination created a wheel hop problem.
