Multiple shocks?
For my 92 F150 I have the stock shock on each tire but I would like to see if there is a kit out there that I could put two shocks on each front wheel. I've looked a little in the past for this but not much was out there if I remember right.
This would be for my 92 F150 in my signature.
Thanks.

This is the cheapest way to do it. I got my buckets from the JY but ordered the lower shock mount from Ford. Only because all the lower mounts in the JY weren't worth putting on the scrap iron barge no less MY truck.

Will still look though. In the event I can't find them, any part numbers or places I could call to follow up?

I figured they all came with the lower mount. My truck has the lower shock mount, but single shock buckets. Been contemplating saving to swap in the dual shock buckets with stiffer shocks all around.

I don't know of any company that makes an aftermarket kit. New parts from the Ford dealer would be hideously expensive. Try the junkyard before you write it off.

I am running the Rancho RS9000 (the non-adjustable shocks). Since I have a MUCH, MUCH powerful motor, bigger tires, etc., I thought stabilizing the front won't hurt.

If they are like my Pro Comp extended radius arms, it shouldn't. I have the mount for a dual shock setup without the dual shock spring bucket. The arms mount exactly like the normal Ford arms and the lower shock mount for the front shock mounts just like the stock system. I'll take a picture when I get home from class...

I am wondering what exactly you are trying to accomplish.
I don't know if going through the trouble adding one more shock to each side
Will accomplish your goal.
The Rancho system is a good system, dated, but good.
Where do you feel your front suspension is lacking.
Steering, spring rate, etc.?
