Starting a BB Duster project

I wasn't having any success get the shocks to mount correctly to the shock plates that were on the car so I decided to build my own. I changed the design to use a thru bolt rather than stud since I think it is stronger and easier to work with.

Andy I really need a pair of these shock mounts. The car I have has a Caltrac suspension and it was mounted to far up into the body. The springs being moved up now makes the shock mounts to short. The shocks only have about 1 or maybe 2 inches of travel before the are fully collapsed. Your mount seems to move the lower shock mount down giving the shock more travel. If I need to weld the through the bolt mount myself that is fine. Please PM me.
