would have been slightly angled back. Once the leaves settle or you add load in the back of the truck you'll wish you had that hole still...

too late now

Longer shackles would have been better. So when they settle or if you ever change leads, you would have the other holes to adjust them.

Just remember, ask 30 different peoples opinions, before cutting anything!

We have all done it at one time. Lesson learned.
