You cut a hole in your stock lower control arm and weld this in. It also works with the afco shocks as well. Actually, the afco shocks mount better as the adjustment knob is on the bottom of the shock and comes out below the hole for easy adjustment. The santuff's are tucked up inside, i have to take them loose at the bottom and pull my shocks down thru the hole to gain access to the adjustment knob which is on the side of the shock. I wish santuff would change that design. I also talked to marty's about his setup but you have to have the longer shocks to go through the bottom of the a-frame and mount below it, but it does makes easy access to the adjustment knob if you have to change it a lot. But once mine were set i leave them alone..

thank you!!!!!

If you wanted to use our lower shock mount, you can make the tabs as short as you can and you will only loose 1/2" of travel. To make up for the lost amount of travel, all you would need to do is loosen up the extension.
As for not being able to adjust the bump or compression real easy, once you set it, you don't really ever have to change it. We set ours at 4 from tight.
