Is this what some of the guys are looking for (isn't this what Bryan and others have used?) I don't know the seller. For front and rear Koni Reds:

F/S KONI REDS FOR FOX BODY

If these are not what I'm thinking of, please delete this post mods ;)

Regular Fox parts are too short. You get closer when the VII is lowered, but it's still off. You might be able to use the shock with a bracket that raises the lower mount but I think an SN95 shock will be a better match with that bracket.

guy makes the rear socket brackets to use FOX rear shocks in thunderbirds and mark 7's I asked him he said they are the same
the price for tig welded steel brackets= 25 bucks
Im buying some off him, as well as set caster, adjustable camber strut mounts(maybe its backwards but its something like that)

If it's Chuck, his brackets are up to $43 now.

AH you know chuck!
they went up? damn I knew I should have got them before....

ah you joined the tbird site! good choice!

[ND4SPDLSC]

I joined to get those brackets as a Plan B in case I can't get the shocks I want. You can thank Pro-5-Oh at LincolnsOnline for making me aware of someone making them though W.V. tried something similar first. Thank God for the internet.

hes really good at what he does, makes some insanely good motor mounts but i think those are tbird specific

so did you ever go thruough with the mounting brackets? how did they work out if so?
