Glenn,
Yes there is room for one. You see there is one from the bottom. I did not know if I needed one on the top side too.

I'm with Fast on the tube, and try to mount opposite from shock angle would be best all thought not usually possible. Those are some serious tires.

Your small tube is good for the the straight up force but the shock will be wanting to push back and up at the same time.  Got to remember that the shock will have leaverage on the mount.  Where the top mount bolt is compared to the center line of the mount it's self.  Tube should be a the lest 1.00 inch. Looking good Dan.

Glenn,
When I am looking at your picture, the tubing I need to put in is on the top of the shock mount back to the roll bar?

 I think  I see what you are saying Dan but try taking a pic or 2 from different angles. I think Glenn and Carl are looking for some triangulation that looks to be missing.

[sandvw]

I took 3 more pictures from a different angle.

Must be the operator. 2 more

Yes top rear from where the top shock bolt go's.  then triangulate back and up to the roll bar.

different one. The operator seems to have a problem this morning.

Finally driving the BAJA. Need to rebuild the front end. I thought after 20 years of running the river beds and the desert before I ran the freeways I should rebuild the front end.
