front suspension

Is there any way to add an additional mount to the front suspension so I can add a second set of shocks?


I just put new shocks on the van and I am still hitting the rubber bump stops when I go over small dips in the road.

Or got the shocks that are for that van. Is there a better way to stop this from happening?

It is an 87 G20 Diesel - Beauville

Re: front suspension

We have a G20 with the 350, but I havent noticed it bottoming. On ours I dont think the shocks would stop it from bottoming - unless they are a type you could pump up with air pressure. I would wonder if you had a cracked coil spring in front.

Re: front suspension

Springs is what holds the front end up.
They may be getting weak.
Check the ride height.
MORE SHOCKS WILL NOT HELP IT.
Shocks only take the bump out of the bump.
