    Hi,
    I found this picture in my library but I do not know where I got it from.
    Can someone tell me how the lower shock mounts look like on this setup?

    Thanks for any advise
    Tom

    Most likely a tab welded to the radius rod.

    Or tab welded to axle, a cut off end of a 37-40 rear radius arm works great

    Looks like they had to notch the spring crossmember because it's so tight for space.

    On my 32 with 35/36 arms, I ran the shocks right in front of the axle. The lower mounts are just two short tabs welded to the insides of the bones. The top mount is a fabbed straight crossmember with shock studs welded in.
