Made me some Shock Extenders

After reading of some peoples issues with shock extenders and having my own issues, I decided just see if i could do something elsr

The ones that i purchased did not fit worth a hoot, also the way the bracket fits around the outside plus the thickness of the bolt, I did not really like it. I know its just a shock mount but wanted something different.

After a little head scratching, some cutting, grinding, welding, grinding, more grinding. this is what i came up with, should hold up, we'll see.
