Got a question... im trying to convert the front of my 46 1/2 ton pickup to tube shocks, if anyone has done this can ya tell me what you used for bottom mounts and what you did on the driver side with all the steering arms in the way??

On my '46 I used the OEM lower mounts from an AD truck front axle ('52). Both shocks mount forward of the axle, so no interference from the steering arm.

What X said. My AD frame is similar to the '46 - used levers - just need AD cups and lower mounts BUT make sure the lower mounts are the kind that have a bend in them. Earlier ones don't have a bend.
