Re: Frame pulling experts

The description is a little tough for me to grasp but it sounds like you need a real frame shop. The only way that rear shackle could be leaning forward is if the frame is bent making it shorter from the front perch to the rear, OR if the bracket for the front perch is bent back somehow. Measure from the center of the spring bolt on both sides up to a "control point" which would be most any hole in the frame or rivet for a cross member or something like that to find out if that is what is rear ward.

Here is a "Basics of Basics" for measuring something like that. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=639860
