new rear shock mount location?

Mere peanuts to a hi roller like you Dusty . Is it possible to heighten the top mount into a tower arrangement? thereby then lift the bottom mount and possibly continue with the same shockers. I'll take a look at my truck tomorrow and see if I have any more stupid or idiotic ideas - not that it may help much
There is always the possibility to mount along the radius link and the shock inclined forwards and the further forward you mount them the shorter the shocks needed. The only issue is the stock radius link isn't designed for those extra point loads and the radius link would have a far greater bending moment.

France, that was my initial idea. Top axle, inside spring... As on front. Great minds, right. I still can not find a major draw back, save the fact that the tower would need be partially incorporated into the cargo cabin area. But that does not deter me from the idea. I am concerned that it would be a subtraction from articulation, I just don't see how...?

that is nice^^... my thinking and continued research on front links is............ 4 link on rear would be pretty easy to figure/fit. but with custom arms on front..would the front then be controlling/limiting the articulation on the rear, even though the rear has greater potential? or would the arms allow enough articulation?
