As belsten said, rude bits for your brass tray and straps

Converting the shocks to the back involves turning the rear tower mount round to pull the shock tower/shocks back inline. Then you need to drill new holes in the rear of the wishbones. Next up you need to find a body post/mount and drill a hole to attach it on the top deck. People were using another rear tower mount for the wing mount support on the bottom.

I know this is an old thread, but what was the logic behind mounting the shocks onto the rear of the wishbone?

what were the pro's/con's versus kit?

I think the theory as I understood it from seeing the CAT SX mods was to add a bit more flex which would improve the handling over the bumpies
