    You should go and check out how I mounted mine in my build thread I just used factory bolt holes where the steps go for the front of the cab and then the very front. Then just self tapping screws for the rear of the cab and rear frame rail. Could use factory step holes but mine were too rusty and threads were trash. I'm adding some more to the middle of the cab and dead center in the rear.

    Looks good! Thinking about doing the rear shock relocate. I just ordered one of their bamf/pelfrey front bumpers. Lol

    @Red Baron you put urethane bushings in the stock shackles of not do so you'll thank me later the stock rubber ones seem to limit the rotation of the shackle a bit.

    If you doing that much add some more cross tubes especially one right above the rear axle for some limit straps. Also get the Eastwood blind frame paint to paint the inside of your boxed frame. It has a tube and 360 nozzle to paint boxed frames. 2 cans is what I would recc.
