    The TC tower gussets are nice but I had to do a fare amount of grinding to them to make sure they fit right. More than I expected but all in a days work I suppose. Now I have peace of mind though too.

    Got mine installed today after fabbing up half of the parts myself (due to installing with an LT kit)

    Had to make new double shear plates with 1/4" extra from the UCA bolt hole to the surface that welds to the shock tower gusset so the grease fitting on the UCA would clear. Gonna let Kyle Green Fab know so he can change his plans...

    Turned out good though:
