On a linked axle there is often no clean spot left on the tube for a lower shock mount — brackets, trusses, and link joints eat the real estate first. Artec's Lower Link Shock Tabs solve that by putting the shock directly over the lower link joint, offset from the axle-tube centerline. This four-piece set covers driver and passenger sides and is shaped to bolt shock hardware up on Artec's standard Lower Link Axle Brackets, so you get a compact double-shear shock mount without fabricating a one-off tower.
Features
- Mounts the shock over the lower link joint, offset from the axle tube centerline
- Works with Artec 0, 10, and 22-degree Lower Link Axle Brackets
- Accepts shock mounting widths from 1.25" to 1.6" — air shocks, coilovers, and ORI struts
- Cut from 1/4" steel plate and boxed for strength
- Four pieces cover both sides of the axle
- Compact footprint keeps the axle uncluttered
These are universal weld-on fabrication tabs, not a vehicle-specific bolt-on, and they ship bare steel — paint or powder coat after welding. Measure your shock's mounting width (1.25" to 1.6" fits) and plan the install around Artec's Lower Link Axle Brackets. Finish the job with the Shock Hardware Assembly, or compare the Flat Shock Tabs for conventional mounts. More options live in shock mounts and brackets.
Lower Link Shock Tabs (4 Pieces) FAQs
What brackets do these tabs work with?
They are designed around Artec's standard Lower Link Axle Brackets in the 0, 10, and 22-degree angles, mounting the shock directly over the lower link joint. If you want the bracket and shock mount as one piece, Artec also offers a Shock + Lower Link Axle Combo Bracket.
Which shocks will fit?
Any shock with a mounting width between 1.25" and 1.6", which covers most air shocks, coilovers, and ORI struts. Measure the width across your shock's lower eyelet or bearing before ordering, and pair the tabs with Artec's Shock Hardware Assembly for bolts and sleeves.
Are these weld-on, and how should I finish them?
Yes — these are weld-on fabrication tabs. Clean all paint and oil from the weld area, tack them in place, cycle the suspension to verify clearance, then finish weld. They ship as bare steel, so paint or powder coat after welding to prevent rust.
