Ive got twin shocks on the front of my 80, i use monotube Bilsteins gas shocks as there quite small in the body and i put them close together in the original top mount with a custom bracket, they are side by side across the axle. Ensure you use shocks that can be revalved or are designed to be used in a dual set up otherwise ther way to stiff. Havn't got any photo's showing my set up and the 4b's in the panel shop at the moment, can get photo's when its home.

Ok wally where did you get your bilsteins and who did the revalve, or can you order them in a dual configuration/valving.....


Has anyone else got a similar set up or played with dual shocks on a 80series.....
