D and W300 Rear Shock Mount interest

Post by Kaegi »

I am making a batch of factory type rear shock mounts for D and W300 1961 to 1971 (possibly will fit 1 ton Power Giants as well). They will look just like factory mounts. I am thinking of making 5 pairs of each. 4 sets for D300 and at least 1 set for W300 are spoken for. Cost is $220 a set. I have the shock part numbers as well. Makes a huge difference in driving quality and ride quality. no more rear axle skipping around on bumps. no more roller coaster ride on bad highways. ;/)

email if interested. forum will get donations. thanks

3 W300 sets and 2 D300 sets. price may drop a little after I get final bill from machinist. he tends to quote high initially.

Getting closer. the shop bending the steel had issues. They ended up having to use heat. rosebud to the rescue. The test pieces cracked trying to do them cold. I hope to have them done in a couple weeks.
