Hey Dion, on slipper springs like the part # e89SR that you referenced the rear hanger location should be right in the middle of the flat portion on the back of the spring. It's not an exact science but having the hanger sit right in the middle of the flat portion of the spring allows it to move like it needs to when suspension is compressed and also not slip out.
