Yeah i have it a little far forward of what it should be but I think all will work ok. I did have to cut my core support to be able to get my ifs box far enough forward.

Well got my frame plated for the steering box and mounted my shock hoop. The xtra braces for the shock hoop arent welded on yet, just trying to decide where or if Im going to use them.. what do yall think?

I think if you do it like that on the other side it will be a pregnant dog to get to your motor mounts & fuel filter.

Yeah,Insane04 brought up a good point,be sure to use the bumpstops otherwise you'll end up flexing your springs into a negative arch wich will cause them to sag.The shock hoops and braces look good.

Most people trim the front of the fender up even with the marker light anyway.  I did since I'll be going ruf's later anyway.

I just left a little more on mine incase I wanted to roll them like they come from the factory.

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

I dont think Im going to mount them like that, at least not have them that long anyway. It would make it hard to get to the motor mounts like you said, the fuel filter wont be a prob tho cause its mounted high in the engine bay.
