So it's come time to figure out what I'm going to do for shock mounts on my cj5 2.5" lift no body lift. have full access to a fab shop not lookin to buy. so let me know what y'all think or works best for you? Pics would be great. Thanks everyone in advance.

I suggest purchasing a ford shock tower from a F-series turck from the 80's

You can get them from the dealership for like $15 per side, The Ford part number I give is E5TZ-18183-A, they were factory bolt on in the ford application, but you can and should weld them on. They are pretty tall so you might have to cut them down a little, but for $15 per side, if you do screw up, your not out a huge amount of cash.

Thanks a ton is there any style that is easy to fab up that's adjustable? Anything has to be better than what I have right now... A bolt through the frame welded on the back side.
