I'm guessing my 'puter automatically down-sizes these pics as they 1st pop up large, then in a second or two they drop to a viewable size..??

---However, folks should try to post the correct dimensions.---

They (shackles) are correct. However, looks like the weight is off the axle thus pulling the spring-eye forward. :unsure:

Yep.., they (bushings/spring eyes/shackle bolts) should be able to rotate 'round ea. bolt.

If memory serves., they're lock nuts, & just need to be snug. Too tight would make for a rough ride. :mad:
