Reply to "Thunder Ranch build thread"

I have two big bolts that go through the bottom of the pan ahead of the little "hump" and go through and screw into nuts welded on the top of my frame extensions to which I attached my jack points. I CADded this out already. Plan to cut and drill some square or c bar and bolt it on there, then bring it up past the jack points and terminate under the grill with horizontal pivot points to which I can attach a Bug bar which I'll cut the ends off of and box for the pivots. 

I'll probably end up tying the two bits together with some small square tube to keep the lateral stress off the jack points, but really it shouldn't matter as they're solid 1-inch round bar welded to 3/16" plate. 

Anyway on this I'll have a real welder after I tack for fit-up. 

A couple big Clevis pins should take it from there.
