Got the new shocks in yesterday, and they fit much better than the first pair. Even fully compressed, and tied I had to disconnect the lower control arm to get these on.
Although I almost screwed up big time as I let the jack down without inflating them as it nearly bent my fender before I could stop the jack.
You can see the gussets for the top mount, that I welded in if you look close. Also, note there isn't very much room to add too much metal as it will interfere with the bellows.
