Rear Mount Location
Used the large hole beneath the body mount with a backing plate to sandwich to the frame.
Upward/Lift load gets transferred from the mounting arm to the body support structure just a few inches to the right of the main slider.

Front Mounting Location
Incorporated with lift kit radius arm bracket mounting.
Toward the front of the main slider, along the left edge, the location where upward/lift force get transferred to the body support structure.
Check out the nifty mud flap mounting system.
