Anyone got pics of how their rear anti-wrap bars attach to the frame and axle for SOA rigs?

I'm trying to get ideas for mine, what kind of joints are you running?
Is the top of the diff housing the best place to mount the bar since it would be farthest from the center of the axle?
If i mount to the axle tube on one side, will the other side travel inwards?

Also,
didnt want to seem like a post whore and post again,
Anyone got pics of the front hoop on a roll cage in an SII.
I am trying to decide how to attach the front without taking up too much leg room or makin it hard to get in.

heres my setup, used front chevy shackle with chev bushing, the rear I just used 3/4 rod ends with some 1/4 " plate to build a mount to housing, and the tubing for the anti-wrap bar was 1" 156 wall I believe, was able to tap it out for the rod ends to screw into....

Bwahahahahaha. I think you have been accused of being a poser Hark.... :D :D :D

I don't have as much pretty paint on mine, and I do have a bit more dirt, but I did mine, keeping it above the axle tube. Just another option

I added a crossmember for my front shackle placement

I should have painted mine pretty colors so it would all show up better.. ;)

It helped tremendously with spring wrap and the resultant hop...

Thanks,
so you added a new crossmember just for the bar?

Theres nothing wrong with pretty paint. As long as it doesn't stay pretty:D

Is that one of them nifty orange driveshafts that reduces air friction?:flipoff2:

My bad. I typed torc instead of hark in the subject line, and forgot to change it.. ;)

But, if the shoe fits... ;)
