On the front there is a bolt hole that lines up with a front factory frame rivet hole. Regarding the rear I have an email from Nate Porter that explains it. What's your email address and I'll forward it.

You should be able to hear it in the YouTube videos. Did the sound not work for you?

Re: Bagged 59 Apache build: Geronimo

Thanks everybody. It's been a long road. Funny coincidence we started the truck 3 years to the day that I bought the truck. Still took too long for me but it was still cool

Got the vintage air and weather stripping ordered so hopefully get it tagged and driving it in a month or so
