Has anyone replaced their front shock mounts? I've looked through all of my truck catalogs and haven't been able to find replacements. I didn't have the problem of the mount "egging" out the hole in the frame. Instead the nut holding the shock on just spun and spun and spun, but wouldn't come off! I had to split the nut to get it off, and found the threads on the shock mount were sheared smooth. Anyone know where to get these?
