Default GM A body rear coil overs?

Anyone done one of these. I am in the middle of prototyping a setup similar to the Global West concept. Has anyone used this kit or another? How about real world results.

Our 66 Chevelle mule has been equipped with either Shockwaves or coil overs for quite a while.

We use a bolt-in bracket in the stock shock location so your exhaust and lower control arm mounted sway bar will still work. The upper mount is a bolt-in adapter that allows you to utilize the bearing mount of the shock.

You can see it here:

I've also attached a quick image for reference.

Do you sell just the bolt in brackets?

At this time you have to buy either Shockwaves or Coil-overs to go with the brackets as the length of the shock is designed into the bracket. So if you were to buy our bracket, then use a shock different than what we use, the geometry would be off and therefore not as affective as the kit we designed.
Sorry.
