Does Chuck still make them?
I got a wicked deal on some mustang shocks.

I'm in the middle of about a thousand other things these days.

Can't commit to making any at the moment.

I am guessing you are talking about the shims at the lower strut MOUNT. Is that correct?? I normally make my own it is not hard if that is what you are talking about??

These adapters relocate the shock mount (lower) in the rear so our cars will accept the Mustang shocks, and, so they will fit correctly.

I'll try in a little while. The stock lower shock mounts that are bolted to the differential are, these take their place. You unbolt the stock mounts, and replace them with the new ones. The new lower shock mounts raise the mounting point for the lower shock to correct location to use the shorter mustang shocks so they will fit and have the proper travel.

I am sorry i thought he was talking about the front strut to spindle difference. The rear is a snap go to home depot and fab up a set that raises the attaching point by the difference in length. That is a simple thing to do. have a good weekend guys

I like the ChuckW pieces. High quality, very professional, and they make me happy.

No question Chuck has assume stuff. I have his Motor Mounts in several builds and i am 100% satisfied and they work and look great. No argument there. But fabbing a set for the rear if chuck no longer makes them or you use the ones 302 offered you you have no other way as i think the longer shocks are obsolete. Not 100% on that just saying. Have a good day off guys.

Decided to use stock replacements instead since I drive it daily, and the roads here in Houston, phew, forget about it.
Plus I have my 02 gt already lowered and man is the ride rough.

Thanks guys.
