My Toyota tundra seats at work give...

    1980 k10 dual shocks to single

    Everyone has their own opinion for me the auxiliary position more vertical up and down makes my truck handle much better but I do have the 5100s as far as the bottom bolt. I would run it through both holes with a long bolt.

    Where to mount TH700 manual lock-up switch?

    I probably could have done this and saved a few bucks I like your idea. Not sure how the brake pedal switch works though. Mine is set to lock up at 55 via the cable/electric switch at the TC so speed sensor only I believe
