there toxic drop shocks from stylin concepts. but if i was to do it again i would use the shock that has the bolt that goes through the top, like the bottom instead of the stud that sticks up like mine. i think it will give u more room to mount the shock.

Loop/loop style... The shock tower you have now will just cause it to bind compared to loop/loop style shocks.

dude, killer welds, and you look like you thought it over well. You really should'nt have let that guy do your rear, lol...

whats a loop/loop style shock? never heard of one or seen one before. the shocks were kind of diffacult to set up for me since i wasn't sure how they were suppose to go. looking at pics of other peoples shocks some looked a little sideways like and some looked straight. so the way i mounted the bottom of the shock it wouldn't work being straight so that's why its a little sideways. but now looking at some more shock pictures i can see how i could have mounted it straight up and down. always next time.... or wait until shock bushings go out then fix it.
the next truck, i'll do all myself. by the time i get done with this one i'll pertty much done all all of it. what a waste of money!!! when i started on it i had no idea how to weld so i took some classes and it seems to be working out ok. think welding is my favorite part. poor truck hasn't ran for about 4 years

The "fun" part never lats long enough either. I think your mind would change about welding being fun if you overhead weld with some flux core, haha.

I know I did!

Loop/loop style is the same type of shock mounts that are in the rear of the truck. It will allow the shock to pivot instead of bind up on one side bcause of the stem/loop style.
