probably didnt have a double sheer mount for the shocks......just clean killed the bolts.

i hate trucks that are "built up" and cant even perform.....waste of money

imo any shop that does not know to use a double sheer mount and sufficeint size bolt.....should not build anything like that, even if he didnt plan on jumping the truck its just plain not safe to not properly build something of that size and weight
