wholes drilled. the bottom is drilled large to allow the head of a 5/8 bolt to fit. You do grind down the head of the bolt, and then weld it in place.

Welded in place. I moved the center bolt back 1.5 inch and out 1.5 inch to help the coil sit more level.

ground smooth and ready for paint

ready for paint. Again, this bolt is now 1.5 inches back and out for better coil alignement.

coil sits much better. I may use the old swaybar mounts to mount a new swaybar since I may go to the new superflex JBG coils

the coil sits much better. Cage builds 4.25 degrees of caster into the arms to help the coil sit flatter. i am running 7 degree bushings upside down, and am sitting at 7 degrees of caster. This is perfect for my and my ram assist. Do not base your numbers of mine, as this is a 60 and not normal.

Had to but weld a pice of 3/8 to match the other side. When these brackets were fabbed, they were made around the stock E4OD tranny crossmember, so things were not the same. It made the passenger side mount a little tougher, and a little uglier

drivers side. The cage arms mounted about 2" further back from where my other arms were, so I cut off all the old mounts below the frame. the new mounts eliminated the hope of reusing the stock tranny crossmember

These arms are sweet. Clearance high and in. they do come a little close to the 80's kingpin style 60 pinion, but there should be plenty of room for shaft clearance
