Any idea where I can get these from ? They're used to fit pump-up shocks to the back of a brumby/MY. I know a few of the guys in WA have them. I used to have a set but they went missing.

just get a bit of 50 x 50x 6mm angle iron and drill 2 holes the right spacing apart, and 1 in the top at the middle
put the top one as close in as you can so your shock still clears the body

So is the new improved version Johnny, or the bendable version if you drive to fast on sand dunes with 5 blokes in the back? LOL What is the recomended shock manufacturer and which model is the one to go for?

i have an eye on the top of my shocks, not the needle top
but my new brackets have copped some fully loaded bumps at the last rally with no failures yet

I've currently got the same as you bluesteel. But I want to put L series coilovers in. I put them in the leone and it drives great.

same difference for those.
or you can use the l series top bracket;
get a bit of flat bar, drill 2 holes the width of the L top Mount
put one bolt through on the MY
mark where the other hole is on the MY, and drill it
bolt the flat bar to the car and L top mount to the flat bar, using one of the bolts straight through both
