I know off road design makes one i was hoping maybe someone could help give me ideas to make one and other routes i would prefer two bars (the look is sweet). its stock height now but plan on going with four inch lift.

I made my own parts out of 1/4" plate steel and welded them to the axle. drilled holes in the frame to match the stock location and bolted the 2 shocks in place. I don't have any pictures.
