personally i would be concerned with axle wrap having them perfectly centered.

and fyi

i made some mounts out of spare 2x6x1/4 wall that legged up from the side of the frame rail that was perfecto.

and my record with dan is 11 minutes i want to meet him and shake his hand

i do have concerns of axle wrap..i was hoping this would motivate me to get a traction bar at some point haha..but we will see...i may play with mounting options in light of the axle wrap fail

i do recall yours...i wanna be super non-invasive and i recall it being that way...i have to get in there and actually look at my floor..i was gonna plate part of the wheel well and leg off of that to a hoop that runs parallel with the jeep over the wheelwell..if that makes any sense

i mounted my shocks on my bumpstops, it didnt work out too well.

So after youve made the mounts and have the final setup done do you need to go back and cross brace the unibody where the old x brace was so there is still some rigidity to it?

probably not going to worry about it for now..i dont think that piece has a whole lot of bearing on things.
