Rounded off my rear shackles for clearance.

And measured my droop and clearance under the transmission mount for a new high clearance mount and skid I am making.

The bumper is gonna have to wait till I get bolts that fit the nutstrips that are on it, the hardware that came with the bumper didn't work for it. I also may just say to hell with it and weld the mounts to the framerails
You got a built thread on the cuts? I'm gonna do it to mine I wanna see the best way to do it
