    Why design the hole on top to clear a 2.5 when you can just bring the bolt hole down? Just curious...

    Odds and Ends
    Spread it out a bit over the frame, add some holes to weld in as well. The shock towers need to displace the flex out over as much area as possible unless they are tied together across the bed. The tower won't flex/give, the frame might.
    Just a thought.
