TJ,
Here is a bit of insight. The lower shock mounts have to be modified to fit the King shocks you have. I know this because I had to do it when I fitted the King shocks. The 2 inch diameter body hits the original mount. When the mod is done, it doesn’t leave very much meat there. I found out much later that the shocks are supposed to be mounted rod end down according to King. So all the removal of steel is unnecessary.
I broke one of my mounts in Great Falls Montana on Friday afternoon before 4th of July holiday. I ended up at HF to get one of the low buck inverter stick units and a hat. It stays on the coach now for emergency stuff. Once I got home both mounts were removed and a LOT more steel was added.
