i think marks 4x4 adaptors do them. The front shocker mounts are split and flat welded between them. cant remember what the back looks like.

Can i ask why you want dual shocks? Unless you are doing stupid speeds over corrugations or a winch challenge truck you would probably be spending money unnecessarily. Better to spend money on decent shocks than try and fit doubles.
