    Just remember to make sure there is clearance to adjust the clevis. That's one thing I did wrong and it's a pain.

    Thanks, I really like it too. And adjustments are a piece of cake. Plus I think the angled straps look really cool.

    I like that as well :thumbsup:.
    Only thing I would worry about in my case, is frame flex. It could crack the welds. Unless I'm overthinking it.

    You have that fancy cross brace between your shackle mounts, right? If so, that would prevent some flex

    It will help limit frame flex, which is another benefit

    @EatSleepTacos

    Do you have a brace across your rear shock towers, or at least the option to put one there?

    No. The only off the shelf one that does that is archive garage, at least that I’m aware of.

    I was thinking that’s what you had. Now I remember you welding up some pre cuts.

    I’m thinking about the archive and putting a brace in and kinda making a tire shelf/rack.

    No, I have BAMF towers but I have archive hammer hangers with a cross bar. Maybe that’s where the confusion came from. And that’s a good idea. I’m working with a local member to build him one off of his archive towers

    Hey Terin i need to pick your brain...
    I just finished wiring new trailer lights( break, turn...etc) I have grounded the lights to the trailer then ran a grounding wire from the trailer to the four pin harness, all is good. My question is; I want to add an Independent Electrical System to the trailer containing 12 volt battery, fuse block, switching and eventually solar to run auxiliary lighting,Refrigeration ,and any other goodies I can come up with. The question is can i ground these additional accessories to the trailer as well without interference too the trailers running light system and Tow vehicle or do I need to run independent grounding to the trailer battery?
