Re: 2wd swap
Rear back half ?
Sure dad I got that to. Local hot rod shop bent these up for us. Should lay pinch with a 30 inch rear tire. Got axles coming with a 4.75 and 5x5 bolt pattern, like the hubs we have. Should be a roller soon.

Re: 2wd swap
Strong maybe, but it's low enough if it gets hit.
All the energy will miss the bumpers.

Re: 2wd swap
I'm beginning to wonder about these bag plates.
Crossmember is 3-1/2 The bag plates are 2-1/4 Or do I even care?

Re: 2wd swap
I like the bottom plate/mount flush w/the tubing if possible. I contemplated re-working my PB lowers but left them alone in the end.
