Why cheap shocks might be better

John,

I bet we could mount a drive or tag axle Koni FSD shock to our steer axle. We have doubled up (stacked) c-channel frame rails above our axles. I don't see why an additional shock mount couldn't be mounted in a vertical position on our steer axles similar to how it was done on our drives. Once I get under the bus to check things out the reason for why it wasn't done might become crystal clear, but on paper (see above drawings) it looks feasible. That'd be a pretty slick upgrade!

You can see how my upper steer axle shock mount is simply bolted on:
