70 cuda u code rear spring shackles ???
« on: March 09, 2012 - 09:11:00 PM »
  My 70 440 4 barrel U code cuda has a straight shackle on the pass side and a offset shackle on the drivers side, both have chrysler logos and numbers on them is this normal for this model? The rear end is a 8 3/4 355 suregrip and a 727 trans.  Thanks Phil

Not factory normal. Mopar did/does offer offset shackle kits, so it is reasonable that it has the logo on it, but they were not a factory offering. I'd be concerned that it was installed sometime to cover up some other mis-alignment that prevented the spring from sitting in the correct place. Definetly worth further investigation.
