      If the Hotchkis arms use a standard lower shock mount, ridetech offers a T-bar that'd go through the lower bearing and bolt with two bolts to your lower mount.

      You can use other uppers, it's just normally recommended to use everything from one manufacturer.
      Were you thinking SPC arms?
