If I ever have the chance to do another truck, I'd do it the way you did.
I have some hours in it.
You have an AD truck right? I thought the frames have different wides? AD is wider?
My bags fits perfectly on the outside.
Maybe you could mount your bags in front of the Lower control arms upon the long reaction bar, I have seen somebody do this.
Or even at the back of the LCA, weld a mounting bracket to it, also seen that.
I wanted no binding in the LCA, that’s why I did it this way, the stock shocks are mounted in the same way...so shocks or bags, my Jag doesn’t see the difference
