Re: 86 squarebody made2drag

im still trying to figure out how to mount rear shocks. im going to use stock front shocks which i think are 8-9 inches compressed. i dont want anything between my notches, so i need to mount the shock bolts on the tire side up high and the axle with 3 or 4 inch weld on bracket plates. i still need to look at the bed mounts and see if i have any other options with the bed on.....kind of like the No Limit triangle mounts i saw on his 72...theres a nice feature on Rob's truck in the newest street trucks starting on page 48.....unfortunately the shocks will be last right before i mount my bed. im trying to only put im bed on once and i hope i never need to remove it again...another reason why im mounting my smc valves and compressor under the hood and most likely using hydraulic line from tank to under hood.
