ok , I was looking at the beam on the frame and noticed that the top of the shocks lean towards the front and not up and down. Is this correct ? Do I need to put shims? or will it move depending on the adjustments of the beam? It has drop spindles and adjusters and is set about the middle. It is about 6 inches to the ground without any weight,

just wondering ..
