Thanks for all the good replys! This is just the start of this build, as I just got into my garage!
Ya & I looked at that tailbone install page 100 time, but didn't realize how solid the system is tell I put it together...

Not that pricey really if you compare it to the other tire carriers with tow points! Plus most back bumpers mount with just the 8 factory bolts, this mounts to the body with 19 to the body & 9 bolts hold the tire carrier/bumper skin in place! If you can find a bumper cheaper & better built you better buy it!

How difficult is it to change the motor mounts ? I have read several clear tutorials, it doesn;t look too bad. What kind of problems I WILL encounter other than stuck bolts possibly ?
The tutorials say that you have to remove the oil filter / ring thingy..... mine is not leaking at the moment I am kind of nervous to touch it.... can I get away without removing that ?
