Built this today. It works. Feels weird not having spring wrap.

It's through the floor and mounts to the cage.

Very nice.

Pics from inside?


I'll grab some tomorrow. Because my b pillar is laid pretty far back I had to build an extension to bring it forward to the center console. I plan on mounting a couple fire extinguishers on it.

All in all I wouldn't do it on a full bodied jeep. I cut a huge chunk of the trans tunnel out and the angles still are not quite perfect but it seems to work fine.

Now flexing it out... It feels less stable. I haven't lost any travel so I can't explain why it feels that way. We'll see how I like it on the trail.

I guess next project is to get the last couple inches of down travel out of these shocks. Looks like I need leaves and longer shackles.
 
Is that the tube I got you? Did it work alright with the weld in there?

Yeah. I took at grinder to the 1.75" just to get the scale off and lubed that shaft all good like and she slid in with a little effort. Tight like a tiger I tell ya.
