No. You still need base

There are a couple hotrodder solutions to that. I think the shock ball is the issue. Someone using tube shocks would cut those off and put the backing plates on right side up. Another fix is to redrill the 4 mounting holes. You position the backing plate at 11 o'clock, and get enough clearance...

Thanks all. I appreciate all the input, it sounds like i have a bunch of options.

Hmm... The old one is an Aetna, made in Chicago. I put some weight on it, and it's less smooth. I'll look for a better new replacement.
