I switched from stock levers to tubes on my 46 using shocks, upper and lower brackets off a 52 half ton. Upper mount is positioned forward of the axle to give the shock more travel. You may have some home brew mounts. May want to compare to a stock 51 or later to see exactly how to position your mounts.
