[oletrucks] '58>'59 Upper Front Shock Mount

[Tim Seawolf Self <tim@route66autoclub.com>]

Does anybody have some words of wisdom regarding the Front Upper Shock Mounts?  
Any horror stories about the mount snapping and a brand new shock going into 
the ground or a tire?

These things seem to suffer from metal fatigue and then break off.  They were 
broke on my '58 when I got it and a PO welded them back together, on the '59.

Would a off road or 4x4 store have a replacement that won't break?

TIA
Tim
