This weekend went great. Didn't touch the rear, but we got the front mocked up and weight on the axles.
I have the short frame, so we extended the frame 2 inches to run the AOR crossmember and bumper. We used a 2" long piece of 2x3 tube. Butt welded to the end of the frame and then plated on the inside to tie into the frame.

Then the crossmember goes over the extension. I didn't get a good picture of it, but the outside of the crossmember, the part that goes over the extension, goes all the way to the frame and is welded on.

Shackle aren't bolted together all the way, and the axle is a litel skewed, that's why they look goofy

This is about what it will look like. It looks alittle wide. But I'm sure I'll get used to it.
