James Duff Lower shock mounts

Do my lower shock mounts look like they are in the right location? See pics

does it look like they are at the right angle? the instructions were kind of veg, and i know my shocks are a tad long.

The top of the bodies look awfully close for axle drop. I would find a way to flex it and make sure they dont hit.

Personally, I would rotate the front mount down and around some more to gain clearance between the shock bodies. Do you plan on getting some shorter shocks? I know they are at an angle, but as they are, it looks like they may end up being bump stops.

I found a decent picture of it on their web site and it looks allot different,yes it looks like the front needs to go down some and rear back a little, and the shocks are for mock up only.

Another thing are you sure you need duals in the rear. Alot of rigs ride better with singles in the rear. My 66 has the old school dual set ups and I swapped the rear to single. Rides much better on the street and still fine on the highway.
