Picture of 8-3/4" Shock Plates for Non-isolator A-Body

I assume that these are facing up???

The curve on the shock plate faces down. There is a good diagram in the service manual on assembly.

Here is one example of a shock plate stud replacement. I think I bought mine at jeggs. http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Shock-Mount-Studs,5485.html
