Re: 71 C10 rear shock bolts breaking

I think the shock length may be suspect. Other than that everything looks normal to me. Have you noticed any hammering when you go over bumps or hauling loads? The only time I've seen shock bolts or even the welded eye the bolt goes through break is when the shock bottoms out.
