I voiced the question in this post about the strength of the lower mount of this new design in the duplicate post located in the "Vendor Marketplace" and my posts, #14 and #16, along with Captainfab's post #15 were transparently moved by an administrator to this post ???

Here is a link to the "Vendor Marketplace" post: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...10#post4526910

No Limit Engineering:

Are you at all concerned about the strength of the shock mounts, especially the lower one? The factory mount captures the shock bolts on both sides of the shock. Your design cantilevers the bolts. While the upper mount looks quite strong the lower looks like it may be a problem, long term, for folks that use their trucks for hauling and towing where shock loads are significant. Perhaps some additional gussets on the lower mount would be advantagous?

Additionally won't the shocks be subject to debris being mounted right behind the tire? Would a shock with an upper dust shield be better in this location to protect the upper shock rod?

If you have 5" or less drop springs, for a few bucks, you can simply make your own new top mount that bolts into the original upper mount rivet holes and use Monroe shocks 32207. Including shocks, I have less than $60 in the set-up. See Post # 56 here: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=444378&page=3
