Have you looked at the AlterKtion setup? It has the same dynamics as the Level II from XV. The front coilover shocks are mounted within it's own frame. i think you are confusing the magnum force setup that uses the inner fender panels and upper shock tower as the upper coil mounting point. The AlterKtion and XV both use it's K member which has provisions of self-containment of the coilover. Just an FYI.

We don't use the K-member to mount the coilover. Our mount for the upper control arm and the upper mount for the coilover sits inside the shock tower. It's a complete unit that gets welded to the frame rail and the shock tower. Loads are completely changed, but we don't install this setup without our chassis stiffening. It's also why we're able to use shocks with a proper amount of travel...



Here's another view of a suspension display. You can see the shock/control arm mount assembly that sits in the shock tower. The little blocks and frame rail below it are just mock-up to support it for display purposes. The pic above shows how it is mounted. The whole assembly sits right in the shock tower and is welded to the frame rail and the shock tower.



You can also see the use of modern large diameter sealed bearings in the hubs.
