oh and also have nothing but good things to say about rough country, Jason at RC took care of everything very well, great customer service and it was shipped to me within 3 days, overall everything was great no hassle at all!

started by getting 2 of my buddies to hold them up while i drilled the holes, i used a 1/4'' dril bit for a pilot hole them finished them off with an 11/32'' as stated in the "instructions"

the front most bracket was supposed to be 5 1/4'' away from the UCA bracket so thats where i measured it

one my friends left i nig rigged a little support while i drilled and bolted up

cool litttle rough country weld

what the whole beast looks like muddy, overall i like them very much, i will put up more pice of them tomorrow of them installed and everything, i just snapped a few as i was installing, i do plan on plating the unibody and welding them sometime soon for more durability, in all it took me about 4 hours cause the unibody is not that easy to drill through especially when drill bits are gettin dull, breaking and everythin else, but all in all a great product, any questions feel free to ask!
