rear U bolt flip kit and shock mounts

Tomorrow I'm ordering my bikini top from Wabfab once the paycheck hits the bank (if I don't spend it the wife buys shoes.....) and I was looking at the U-bolt flip kit they offer and then again at the weld on shock mounts..... and new shocks from them... anyways..........


If any of you have done a U-bolt flip in the rear from the Wabbit did you also buy his weld on shock mounts? If so then where did you put them (top/bottom/front/rear), if not then what did you use?


I'm thinking I can do the flip kit when I install the coils and use that top plate, with a minor mod, to hold the coils on the bottom and since I'll have the welder out I can install the shock mounts. Of course then I have to figure out what shocks to order.......

junkers I am not sure which mounts you plan on getting but I ordered some from trailgear and wabfab suggested mounting them at 10 an 2 .
here is a link to my thread where he suggested it.

10 and 2 huh? Sounds good. How did you decide which shocks to use or did you just reuse the old ones? Since I'm planning on lifting it I need to figure shock length and am unsure if using a forklift to compress one side and droop the other, and measure, will give me the info I need.
