If you have a body lift bolt some 50x25 on top of the cross member with some 1/2" bolts welded in. Won't flex like the flat bar.

Hey shep whats going on with your exhaust? :D

In re: to tech, i have drilled and bolted a bit of 50x50x4 RHS so it bolts onto the stock shock mounts and allows inboarded shocks in two locations. Easy to do. I've got some pics somewhere

Can the rear spring plates be rotated and or swappped to move the bottom shock mount to the front of the diff? When i put my new ranchos in they ended up with nasty dents in them before i removed the brake line mount. It's too wet for me to head out and have a look myself! I guess the inboarded mounts could be moved rearwards maybe. Any thoughts?
