Thanks for the helpful responses. I cleaned up the rear axle jack points and found two holes that I drilled out a bit wider, mounted the bottom of the shock on that and found holes in the frame 48" and 53" back from the front of the bed, reamed those out a bit to accommodate a 1/2" bolt, drilled out two 8" long 2x2 heavy duty square channel, rust proofed that and bolted on top of these a 1" x 1/2" steel "U" about 40 " long running across the frame and drilled holes to accommodate the top of the shocks at a 10 degree angle or so. Works great! Not exactly a ride like my old Jaguar, but better.
