    Excellent! Thanks for the advice. I'll probably just leave things as they are until the bumpers come and I get them on. I will have the rear bumper with tire swing-out and fuel/hi-lift and a roof rack focused towards the rear. Thats more weight than in the front.

    In the future, I can just order longer strut bolts and slide them in the existing mounts? I guess I didn't look to see if they were spot welded on that perch (or mount). You know with the stock bolts and the RR spacers, I really didnt' grab many threads on the rear holes of either strut. You know the two bolts positioned to the rear of the strut. There are mounting plates on either side for the unibody support bar. Made me nervous but it seems the pressure is always forcing things up.

    The studs are spot wedled, but they can be cut off and new longer ones can be tacked in place.

    I heard from people on JF that the stock bolts can be knocked out fairly easily and then you can weld in the new, longer bolts.
