I have a 1940 Chevy 1/2 ton front axle in my 1935 Chevy 1 & 1/2 ton truck chassis. I would like to install a shock absorber kit onto my project. Just wondering if a kit exists or if I can just buy the mounts?

You might want to check with No Limit Engineering. They have shock mounts for 47 and later which were easy to modify for my 46.

If your going to use the original lever arm shocks they used a steel plate that was held to the front axle by the spring perch U bolts. I have a template if you want to make them out of flat plate. They are a copy of my 35 1.5 ton trucks.

I've got a couple of tube shock mounts made by Classic Performance Parts, if your interested. These are not stock type mounts but will work nicely. Let me know if you are interested.
