    Its being looked into believe me. Just like many other 4x4 alterations from stock (oversized tires, Body lift, custom bumpers, and so on) Thanks for pointing it out though.

    Stock is 6 mounts on the cab, and we added 2 more contact points for a total of 8. We also built the new mounts out of 1/4" plate instead of the super thin stock mount guys have been chopping to keep from tire rubbing. Installation is key in any mods

    You use the same mount on the body, and then we added another just a few inches back in the floor.

    Yes! I have a 2" body lift and ditched the puck, slid up the new frame mount, and welded the new one back on. The hardest part really is removing the old frame mount. The rest is pretty simple.

    I'd assume so.

    I have no concerns over Haws' work.

    So Im hoping I have pic's of the new kit today. The CNC machines motor is down and we have another on order. Ill get pics up and a brief description of what exactly is involved to install it. We were thinking of looking for a one or two guys to be ginny pigs, and give us constructive feedback. It would involve a good write-up and we would give a bit of a discount. If you think you fit this bill then PM me with your info and Ill get in touch when we're ready.
