Well not sure why it took so long to figure out how to mount the orbital valve. I tried putting it where the steering box was but it wanted to hit the radiator and hoses. Took a break and decided to put it where the air filter used to go. I used the factory track mount bolts and built a bracket to use those.

Yep. On a side note took the Jeep for a test drive last night. With the doubler installed the gearing is amazing

its getting there beadlocks will be ordered friday and hopefully finish up a few things with the front end this weekend. The list is getting shorter all I need is to bolt the seats in, hook up a few sensors, replace a power steering cooler line and change out the pinion yoke on the 60 and hook up the shocks. Then bolt on the front bumper and she's done.
