I not sure if this is the proper forum to post this in but...
I was looking at the skyjacker dual shock kits for my 79 f150 4x4 its a long bed with dual tanks but the front tank is out. Are the shock kits easy to install has anyone ever done it, if so hw hard is it, is there welding required.
As always any help is appreciated.
I bought this kit several years ago so I dont remember the price. I do remember that I was completely dissappointed w/ the kit. I was installing it on my 79 Bronco and was looking for something like the stock dual shock set up w/ a hoop that bolts onto the frame and goes over the spring perch. Yes there is welding. The kit was nothing more than 4 or 5 pieces of 1/2 flat iron drilled for shock eye bolts. It was supposed to weld onto the frame perpendicular. It would have worked but not at all what I wanted, nor would it have had a very 'finished' look. I ended up giving them away to someone to use just for the flat iron stock. The kit did also include some bolts, nuts and washers. --Hope it helpss, Charles
