Two other suggestions:
Looks like you are using bolts instead of clevis pins to attach the rods
to the eccentric fitting. The threads on the bolts will chew up the
fitting and/or rods over time. Go to Home Depot and get the correct size
clevis pins.
I don't see any u-bolt threads exiting the nuts on the bottom of the
shock absorber mounting plate. Based on the forces exerted on the
spring/rear end housing by all that horsepower, make sure you have full
engagement or more of the u-bolts through the nuts. Nylock nuts, or
split washers, or Lock-Tite would be good also.
