Shock mount failure

Don, that is a first for me hearing that. Is this a Koni?

I'm the latest victim of a driver's side front shock mount failure. It took out the brake line when it went. I was not far from home on the way back from Q, so I limped on in (I know, in retrospect it was too dangerous, but I kept a lonnnng following distance!)

I've used the local Detroit dealer in Arcata (Trinity Diesel) a couple of times now for service, so I called them, and the service manager said he would swing by for a look, no charge. He ended up removing the shock and the air line, and said that he would come by the next time he was this way with a new airline. A new shock will have to be ordered (the top bent/caved in) and they will schedule an appointment to get it welded after they have that. Shock was 17 months old.
