Rear Leaf Spring shock mounting plate

[Adz28]

Can someone confirm that the rear leaf spring shock plate for a multi-leaf (z/28) application would have a single shock support as opposed to the double version?

Thanks.

My '68 Z/28 has the single shock version.  They're original to the car.

Thanks for the info... Same for 1969?

Yes, the ones in that auction are 69 shock plates.

Thanks again... Once installed, how much space (if any) should be between the shock plate and the axle mounts?

Once bolted together, the rubber pads compress and the mounting plate is flush/ no space against the axle mount.

Yep, pretty much flush. I dont know if you can see it in this photo:


This photo shows space, but I loosened the bolts already:
