shock hoops/ ford towers?

[azaussie]

Seems like lots on mini trucks and 4runners add shock hoops or ford shock towers in order to run longer shocks. Akarilo's tread (https://forum.ih8mud.com/showthread.php?t=97744) has me wonder who else has added ford shock towers for aftermarket shock hoops to their 60. Pics please

i've done it on mine. i actualy bought the ford towers, but i would have had a problem getting them to work just right without cutting the fenderwell, so now i have hoops for my bilstiens, and i would not change it. works great, and more travel with the SOA

I'm going to use the Ford towers(I'm a Ford parts dude)....

in my application they'll work better with the Aftermarket Bilsteins(longer w/heim joints)

Ford Part Number : E5TZ-18183-A List Price: $13.15 ea

Any Ford Dealer can order 'em....most should have 'em in stock

Are the ford towers cheaper than the hoops, can you take them off a wreck at the junk yard? I like the looks and I need new shocks anyway. sorry for the hijack

the ford towers are really inexpensive actually...

there's an old thread that just got brought up over in the 40 section:
