Most dont pick up the factory 3 shock mount holes so no drilling is required or at least I didnt see any like that prior to making mine. I only saw autofabs prior to making mine that was bolt together and since drilling was the biggest complaint of the autofab one I made mine without drilling.
Lol, I should have been more specific. I was not implying that you think everyone is copying you, but rather that your drawing is floating around. I have a AHD drawing of a rear shock mount plate....

I like the headlights. Mine are in need of replacement too, can I ask where you got them from and how much dough. I am looking for a lens that really projects light well.

Thanks

Finally got all the parts to complete the 9" conversion...its a Yukon Nodular case with 456 gears detroit locker 35 spline with currie axles and 5/8 studs, and a cheap frankenstein disc brake combo that i came up with. Speed sensor relocator is in, big thanks to mark on that one...Very clean kit! And with the exception of the chase box and ice chest tubes the cage is finished (pics to come). For now here's a pic of the 9"

Ive got a ton of work ahead of me especially after the swap meet last week. I came accross a deal on some Fox 3.0 bypasses and bumps i just couldnt pass up...Now that i finally have the suspension all dialed in its time to start all over again HAHA. Im pulling the rear 2.5 tripples off and moving them to the front, 3.0's wil be in the rear. I initially wanted to mount the rear bumps on the outside of the frame and bump off the spring u bolt plates but i ran into some clearance issues so they will be going on the inside of the frame. Then Ive got a manual transfer case swap to do and then mount the 3 HID's on the front bumper (cant wait to see these bad boys on the up front)...Its going to be a busy couple weeks!

The 3.0's are going in the rear. I currently have 2.5 bypasses in the rear and will be moving those up front. Should be perfect...cant wait to install everything and get it all dialed in!
