Looks good. I take it you're building the bars in place or using an adjustable heim joint on them since you're mounting brackets first?

They will go between the axle and brackets to help take out the nasty spring wrap and wheel hop

bracket looks good. you are gonna put a shackle in there right? if not your gonna get a ton of pressure pushing it forward when you compress your suspension and a lot of pull when you extend it. creates a lot of binding.

No shackel on it but i did make them long (almost 7 1/2') so they should still allow so articulation.
Heres the truck with them on. I'll try to get better pictures later
