help with front upper shock mount c10
Hi buddies, I'm Seba from Argentina and I need you help. I need the front upper shock mount for my truck and and found the kit of cpp, the first pic, but it don't serves me, because in the driver place I have the clutch mount, so I need a kit to be installed on the side of the chassis, like the pic two, or may be the pic three but (in this case I shold reform the shock), do you know where can I buy that? I would be very grateful if you could help me, thanks.

Seba.-

Just a guess but (top picture), looks like that bracket should bolt to the side of frame, not the top. With shock mounting ears facing up.

CPP also has a side mount and new stud that bolts the shock in its original position.

If you have any access to any 4X4s with dual shocks you could use this bracket.

In this case the support I need is in the top of the chassis, it don't serve me unfortunately.

One of the forum vendors, Porterbuilt street rods, has the style depicted in the last picture. They have a kit available with new shocks. Very quality parts, give them a try.
