Looks good I am surprised they didnt give you the option of the B-body style lower plates.

One of the big issues with the f m j ars is the extreme shock angle, using the B-body lower plates lets the shocks stay a bit more verticle.

If youhave not braced you upper shock mount bar, get ready to and with the big tube shocks, keep an eye on it pinching your brake line.

This is the calvert F M J -body kit with B-body lower plates.


Thanks for the tip on the upper shock mount bar. Actually Mark, they did send me the wrong lower plates to start with. Since my shocks were pretty new I wanted to use them, so they sent me plates for a bayonet style shock. As you can see from the pic, they have tabs to fit multiple applications. I'm using them for now ( although I don't like the angle between the tabs and the shock stud - not 90 degrees ). I did keep the early B plates so I can go to eye / eye shocks in the furure if I desire.
