Thanks guys. I thought the square design went with the rest of the truck. It's bolt on, so if I ever have to pull the bed off I can. And I thought it saves most of the bed. I'm still not ready to go full blown no bed lol.

Limit straps for the rear are on. And after driving it some now the front is going to need some shock tuning. The rear seems to be working decent.

It's a bronco in the shop that is getting a roll bar thing on it.
And yea mine are single shear lol but not off the frame like that. I have a tab on the axle and a tab on the round crossmember at the rear of the frame. I think single shear is fine for a limit strap in this application. There is very little leaverage or side load on the bolt. And a 1/2 bolt in a position like that has a lot more shear strength than the strap. Even yours will probably bow out the frame before you have problems with the bolt lol

Had a ton of fun. Have some shock tuning to do know and some more clearance for the 37's. But overall we had an awesome time. My brother's friend brought his raptor out and gave it hell lol.

Been using it for the work truck. Gonna tear it down for winter maintenance soon. Then it'll be on the back burner till after I get married in June. And then I have some idea floating around of what to do with it.
