Inboard Shock Mount build

RajinCajun · Mar 25, 2007

Got a wild hair to actually build my rear inboard shock mount yesterday. I think it turned out pretty good for about 2 hours of work and a piece of angle iron.. It lets it flex ALOT more, I am going to have to trim some sheet metal to keep the new tires from rubbing.. the current 36's hit, so I expect the 39.5's to hit quite a bit more.. Looks like I need to get out the sawsall

. Here area a few pics of the shock mount and the new-to-me tires.. Gotta go get the tires dismounted so I can put them on my H1's..

Looks like a very nice job!

BTW what lift, etc are you going to be running to fit the 39.5's? I am contemplating going up to those from my 37" Irok's. I have no issue with a little sawzall lift too ;D

I am running the 5.5" Tom's lift, with 2" body lift.. the front is a little higher than normal because of where I built the lower coil mounts for the new axle.
I hope to have the 39.5's on in the next few days so I can acutally see how much I need to trim. I will post up some comparison pics when I get them on. I may actually put a bump stop on the rear to keep the springs at bay... they do a reverse U now with the added leverage and weight of the new axles and heavier wheels. The 39.5" Boggers is what I have planned to run for a few years now.. it is just finally taking shape.. the axles should be able to handle them
