i made shock mounts for the rear so i could run full length shocks pulled a leaf ,flipped it with a block and 2'' drop shackles , wish i had a bigger notch thats the only drawback maybe this summer ill cut it out and go bigger , it rides so good it will hit on large bumps thinking bags up front too , not sure

I checked his site and it says he only deals in 73 to 87, or do these fit 1971 rear leafs also??? How can I get ahold of him.
