I stole and modified your idea!

with a little modification!

The Ballistic brackets fit like a glove!

IRUNROCKS · 06-01-2010, 05:10 PM

Keep in mind you can always flip the bracket inside out and do it like this

That's cause you have a frame. I read somewhere that when you don't have a frame, you don't need to weld them

That explains a lot!

The uni-frame should break before the unwelded bracket. And in your case, the jackstands shouldn't create enough force to break them either, so you'll be find not welding too

your supposed to weld these things on?

Gravy · 07-21-2010, 02:24 PM

I realize this is probably already under the rig, but why not tie the coil buckets into the inner "C"s? They are pretty close already.

whitetrashxj · 12-09-2010, 08:36 AM

nice welds and nice build, question for ya, did u have to turn ur inner C`s? and what did u use to get rid of the unit bearings on the 02 d60 diff?

no on the Cs and Solid hubs.

whitetrashxj · 12-10-2010, 10:41 AM

Your drivers side upper link mount, where did you get that from? Or did u make it? I've been looking all over ballistics site and can't find anything like that,

DJ404564X4 · 12-12-2010, 12:05 PM

i think it started life as a Ballistic mount, and then was cut down to what you see now.

HOFF · 12-17-2010, 09:32 PM

I made it to fit the truss and the housing. Custom to DJ's Dana 60

Big_Ugly_1982 · 05-21-2011, 07:41 PM

Can this be done for a WJ? What are the spring perch differences? Did you shorten the passenger side? What suspension are you running in front? What type of steering are you running?

Thanks
