I figured out my rear shock mount plan. I bought the upper mounts plates from No Limit Eng. The lower mount on the trailing arm is home made.

I got the rack kit mounted but ran into a lot of problems with Step 13, the bearing mounting. I will get it next weekend.

How do you like the way the rack and pinion unit fit in there? I see you didn't have to notch the frame. Just got my X-member tached together this weekend. I was wanting to keep the stock steering (haven't moved mine forward like yours.....yet), but..........I like the look of the R&P unit, and I'm thinking it's going to handle a lot better than the stock stuff......
