Front Dual Shocks

[SFord]

Can anyone that has the front dual shock set-up tell me where the lower portion of the shock attaches to? Also if you have a stock height front end what shock are you using and what kit did you use. Any pros and cons would also be appreciated. Thanks Steve.

Bob thanks for that info but what I was talking about was adding one more shock to each side and keeping the one in the original position. I have seen a plate that gets bolted between the upper shock tower and the upper coil spring support but do not know where this type attaches at the bottom. I would also like to add two more bilstiens as the choice of shock but realize that they would need to be a shorter version given the fact that the attachment point of the add ons will be lower at the top. Does this make sense... ... ... .

There is an additional bracket that is added next to the coil spring socket.

Red360, does this bracket bolt on or is it a weld on piece?

Its a bolt on item... I got the lift from skyjacker and it came with it for the class 2. You should be able to purchase seperately. It uses the bottom hole next to your lower control arm and the hole next to the upper control arm. I did have to drill holes out to a 12mm.
