I'm not trying to rain on anyones parade. I'm also doing a chopped member on my burb but if it was my rig i wouldn't trust just that little bit holding it all together. I'v have bone stock 6cyl's shear bolts in factory mounts. I'm going with DIY4X's set up. using a poly bushing in a factory style set up but all 1/4" plate. Even a simply gusset would double your strength on that mount.
