Right on. If I have any problems with my crossover ill just swap it to your design.
I was a little worried about my drag link being acouple inches longer then the track bar but won't know tell it's on.
Did u have any interference problems with your track bar to the oil pan at full compression/passenger tire tuck?

I did initially during mockup, but I put a bend in my trackbar to avoid it.

Ordered my uhmv for my skid plate.

3/8" impact resistant uhmv, which will be attached with countersunk bolts and backed with 1/8" aluminum

I don't think so, I'm pretty sure I'll be putting glass back in

So started my skid plate.

The materials... 1/8" aluminum plate, some 1/4 aluminum strips, some 3/16" angle, and a 2x3' piece of 3/8" uhmv.

I cut the aluminum to the shape of the opening between the 2 crossmembers.

And I cut the angle into a few pieces and welded them to the crossmembers. These will serve as some of the mounting points for the skid.
