If anyone has some pics that would be great!Thanks for the help! | | | | | Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 1,381 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 1,381 | I do not have any pics as I went to tube shocks on my 37,I do have the rear portion of the kit from Jim Carters for the 49 on back that I am not using. I think the shocks mount on the outside of the frame rail so you will have to use the same width of rear end or that kit wont work,I put a narrower rear end in my 37 and could not use the rear part of the kit.

I've got the front mounts installed but I just never saw how the rear was mounted. I like the crossmember version Chev4t6, is your truck stock height or lowered? I plan to do an axle flip and c-notch so I'm thinking the crossmember setup would be the best choice for clearance reasons. Thanks for the help guys! Any more pics are great! | | |
