Re: front axle shock mounts

Are we talking about the front axle on a 4x4 truck right ?

Re: front axle shock mounts

Thanks for the link andrewmp6, my only problem with this option is that my sway bar mounts are part of my top leaf springs plate that are bolted down. If i can weld onto that plate i can modify it to work but im not sure it is cast metal or not. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=140216 its similar to this users

Re: front axle shock mounts

I have no idea if its cast or not,Maybe ask in the 4x4 part of the forum they might know better then me.But worse case you could make your own out of plate steel and weld on the shock and sway bar mounts you need.
