Yes. I sent you a PM with my email. Might take me a few days, as I'm hitting the road this morning in the van for a 1200 mile, one way trip.

Awesome, Thanks. Email sent.

Anyone have trouble with the track bar bolt size? The MG kit seems to use the 24mm bolt that goes the frame but my trackbar uses the 30mm. Do I drill it out?

Please disregard my previous post. Someone powder coated the brackets I have and the guy who made this kit is a real engineer and super precise. I guess I am just use to stuff that comes from China. Just had to clean the powder coating off.

If anyone wants a good laugh. This is me installing

Thanks!

I can get you a pic of mine, but I did have to cut my tank.

Mine rubs the transfer case. I plan to cut the rear cross member at the rear of the tank and move tank back even farther.
