[QUOTE="TB-F, post: 1069484, member: 16115"] Here is how I had the shock mounts, as part of the gusset plates for the towers the upper links atatch to, a clean way of mounting them I thought. The actual shock from the back [IMG]http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i63/TB-F/100_0945.jpg[/IMG] And my "mockup" shock from the front [IMG]http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i63/TB-F/100_0947.jpg[/IMG] Here's the major problem, when the axle articulates the shocks are so close and so low on the towers that we have a major interfernce problem. Ouch, shock to bolt action. [IMG]http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i63/TB-F/100_0946.jpg[/IMG] And here's my frame modification. The shocks would come dangerousley close to the tube before my clearnce notch, I'l cap the tubes where they were cut. [IMG]http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i63/TB-F/100_0948.jpg[/IMG] I am still going to try and mount the shocks the same way, but I'm going to make new plates the put the shocks a few inches higher and about a inch farther inboard, I dont want them to even come close to hiting anything, it would realy suck to break a racerunner in half due to piss poor engineering.
