I must be missing something or maybe its the picture, but I don't see how the rear spring set up works. Is there enough room over the pumpkin for travel ? Are you using slides in place pf spring shackles ? Please don't get me wrong.....just asking ? Where is RPM ?

I am curious as well, it may be just the angle of the picture, but it does appear that travel is limited due to the spring being close to the top of the differential [S
 
that was a pic from when i was still trying to figure out what the heck i was doing....after i put it together the only travel i had was what little the leaf springs flexed which was not much and very stiff....i have now redone it and added shackles to each side of leaf....better!
 
got my ponies all done!!! 350 .60 over fresh from machinist!
