There are afyermarket “airplane” Shock mounts that came out in the 40s and 50s to replace the old Houdaille shocks. They bolt in the same spot.
They are still available places like eBay and here on the barn. Summer even new old replacement stock. NORS
I have them on my 35 coupe. Here’s another option too.

These shock mounts are on eBay for sale
They are also on the Hamb website. Last I saw was only $30.00 for the set.

There’s also a set on the Ford Barn at $75.00

Butch, Just mounted the tube shock kit Ralph mentioned above. The kit is easy to work with, at least foe me. The challenge was removing old shackle studs from spring and perches. Best of success.

I used the Pete and Jakes shock kit on the front of my 1941 1/2 ton pickup. Easy bolt on except for the shackle studs.

This is the aftermarket style sold in 40’s/50’s.
