Yes i know big and square plate steel is not very sleek but i have no worries about strength on this sucker... Basically those rectangular 1/2" steel perches allows the cradle to scoot back 3" to a more flush area on the frame seeing how it curves on the passenger side, grade 8 bolted and lap welded.

I should be working on the trans mounting but i'm putting that off for a few weeks to get this thing bolted up since the truck needs to be moved around the place.

By the way just in case anyone is thinking i like dirt and grease, i don't. Everything will be taken apart and stripped, cleaned and painted after all the custom work is finished, can't wait...Name:  P1010011.jpg

Careful sometimes that dirt is what holds things together LOL



Liking the build, eager to see it all cleaned up
