When axle real estate is tight and there is nowhere clean to hang a shock, the Artec Industries Lower Link Shock Tabs let you mount the shock directly over the lower link joint, offset from the axle-tube centerline. This four-piece set covers both the driver and passenger sides and bolts to Artec's standard Lower Link Axle Brackets, so you get a shock mount without fabricating a bulky one-off tower.
Key Features
- Relocate the shock over the lower link joint, offset from the axle tube centerline
- Compatible with Artec's 0, 10, and 22-degree Lower Axle Link Brackets
- Accepts any shock mounting width from 1.25" to 1.6"
- Suited to air shocks, coilovers, and ORI struts
- Compact design that bolts to standard Lower Link Axle Brackets - no oversized special bracket needed
- Made from 1/4" boxed steel plate for strength
Fitment & Compatibility
This is a universal fabrication part, not vehicle-specific. It is designed to work with Artec's Lower Link Axle Brackets in the 0, 10, or 22-degree angle, and accepts shock mounting widths from 1.25" to 1.6", covering most air shocks, coilovers, and ORI struts. Use it on any link-suspension build where you need to clear the axle tube and relocate the shock over the link joint.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do these bolt to?
They are made to work with Artec's standard Lower Link Axle Brackets in 0, 10, or 22-degree angles, so no large special mount is required.
What shocks will fit?
Any shock with a mounting width of 1.25" to 1.6", including air shocks, coilovers, and ORI struts.
Why mount the shock over the link joint?
It frees up crowded axle-tube space and lets you run the shock offset from the tube centerline when there is no room for a conventional lower shock mount.
Do I need to weld them?
Yes, these are weld-on fabrication tabs and should be positioned and welded as part of a link-suspension build.
Want the brackets and tabs together?
Artec also sells them combined as the Shock + Lower Link Axle Combo Brackets.
