Long travel house on 35s with a custom aluminum utility bed and FWC

some welding required

Figured I could share the method I used to allow the UCA bolt to clear the sheet metal without going all caveman with a hammer and giant pliers.
I think this is a little more elegant and if you have a welder can easily replicate the tool
