Engineering 101 - Mounting coil over shocks.

Pick a spot on the axel that looks right, and weld the lower shock mount there.

Hook up the lower end of the shock to the previousely welded mount.

Move the upper end of the shock around the area of the frame and find another nice spot to weld the upper shock mount.

Mount the upper end of the shock to the previousely welded mount.

Do the same to the other side of the car. Extreme care must be taken to make a mirror image of the mounting so it doesn't look like you did it haphazardly.

DONE


This is the easy way to explain why you see so many different ways to mount the coil overs........

Clois, this post is just to let you know your question is not being ignored
