the front of the hoop was hitting a very large sloppy factory weld. I had to grind it smooth then it fit flush.





Then drilled the hole. you drill 3/8 all way thru both sides of the frame. be very careful to drill straight and level.



the rear hoop mount was away from the frame about 3/16" so i clamped it in place with the front and upper bolts in place



then drilled that 3/8 hole all way thru both sides of frame. once that was done i pulled the upper hoop all way back out

now you drill ONLY THE OUTSIDE HOLES TO 1/2"



then you slide the supplied sleeves into place and bolt thru them. this effectively creates a sleeved hole thru the frame so that you dont collapse the frame rail when you tighten the bolts.



now you can reinstall the hoop



then i installed the upper control arms. I used one aluminum spacer per side of the bushings.



this is the upper in with the ride height adjustment bars in place.



then i installed the spindle and tie rod end





then on with the brakes.



that is pretty much the entire passenger side installed with one guy in about 2 hrs taking my time and reading the install guidelines several times over.
