DESCRIPTION
Clean, low-profile lines and a high-clearance design make these Artec Industries shock mounts strong parts when installed. The heavy steel units are designed to replace your worn shock brackets.
They require welding onto the side of the axle tube to install, and will handle some serious abuse. Artec universal high-clearance shock mounts are a great addition for all vehicles, due to their beefy strength and protection of the shocks.
**This is a DIY product and should be installed by a competent welder only**
