Being the shock mounts are low on the ZR2, installed the Datin fab shock skids today. Protection for the expensive DSSV dampers.

wow that`s a good idea

Or you could always move the DSSV coil-overs to a higher mounting position utilizing custom bracketry

PAT DETAILER- Hey, good move! The later Crown Vics had `em on the rear shocks, but for a different reason (so they don`t puncture the gas tank if rear-ended).

Are those gonna be easy enough to clean out (like..stuff getting built up during winter)?

They fit really close (good design) so junk getting in there should not be a issue. Pic is from another members truck. AEV also makes a really nice boron steel rear diff skid. Easy install. Looking at this maybe. Protects the axel shaft & U -joint too.

Easy install. Only weighs 6 pounds! So easy tho to fall down the rabbit hole with mods!

Good idea to install them. Those mounts/shocks do sit low! wow!

PA DETAILER- Heh heh, even a "No trucks, thank you!" (despite that Tahoe

) guy like me has heard of AEV! If they make it, I`m sure it really is All That.

Glad the shock towers won`t collect [crap], but hey...*are* you gonna drive it year-round or will it be for nicer-weather-use?
