That's also the best way.

crawlerready, I don't mind if you want to use the shock tower idea. There's actually a couple guys running similar set-ups to mine, it doesn't bother me at all.

Default about the savage shocks

can you post some new pics like how you mounted your shocks to the axle and how hard was it to fab the shock tower?

There's a bunch of body off pics of my rig here:

The set I'm running now was machined in a CNC mill, if you're interested in a set like mine LMK.

Can check out my thread below on the first page as well (rock magnet).
It is really as easy as getting some aluminum at home depot cutting it to length and drilling holes.
