Single shock long travel mounts???

[Steven Neff]

I am looking for some single, long travel shock mounts. Is there any decent ones out there???

 

[70_Steve]

Front, rear or both?

Body lift, and if so, how much?

How much money do you want to spend?

There are some very nice shock mounts offered by the vendors on this site. Most of the shock mounts accommodate 2 shocks, but you don't have to use both mounts.

That being said, I built my own...

Hard to beat the F-250 mounts for the front. They're cheap and work well. I usually make the rears.

i am going to be running a 2" BL and 3.5" SL , I'm not to concerned with the front as I can use the dual shock kits out there, but the rear is what I'm having a hard time finding.

Wild Horses Shock Jock, or Duff's Stage 2 rear shock mounts are hard to beat. If you don't mine cutting your wheel wells, Wild Horses Extreme rear shock mount will give you significant travel.

I have the duff stage II on mine. 3.5" suspension 2" body. Haven't ordered shocks yet but i'm getting duffs 12" travel shocks front and back. Going to be running single shock config. As for the front i have a set of BKG hoops and f250 mounts. I think im going to use the F250 mounts because i can get just a little extra height out of them.

with a 2" body lift there's not trimming for the duff stage 2 mounts.

I used mixed -n- match parts to get what I wanted. WH shock hoops, Duffy long radius arms, and using a single Rancho 9000 shock mounted in the most rearward postion for the most travel and flexy articulation.
I choose the "regular" style shock hoops that offer 3 different shock mounting options, so I could change it in the future easily w/o rewelding a different hoop.

You might also check out BloodyKnuckleGarage (Jim was with Cage for some time and a great guy). I went that route on mine. Or Vintage Iron Fab Worx - can find his usually on eBay and he is a member here. Please note you might want to remove and reinstall the shock mount on the front of the axle tube if you go with a newer mount as these are meant to relocate to the front.

Another vote for the f-250 mount up front. Leave part of the stock mount so you can put the f--250 mount higher. I'm still deciding what to put in the rear. Right now my rear is inboard with too much body roll.

You can also try ruff stuff

I still have one set of front and rear left in black, and a couple set of rears in grey. I'm going to make another batch soon(hopefully in the next few weeks)

Do you have any close up pictures of your front hoops on the truck?

That's a good looking kit
