The system is designed to use the Mustang "quad" shock. Length- 12.2" compressed, 14.5" extended, with 12mm eyes. There may be HD units available with rod ends but the length must be variable.

The hub carrier bracket is attached by drilling and tapping the hub carrier. There's not a lot of clearance for inside nuts, although in a pinch there're some flange nuts or helicoils that could be used for reinforcement in the aluminum.

The chassis bracket is attached with 5 threaded inserts. A large clearance hole must be made behind the internal (welded) nut. It's all pretty easy to install.

I will post assembly templates and directions when I have time.
