Skyjacker 9240 Install?

So I finally decided to get an actual steering stabalizer kit , and the one that I found that said it fit my truck (97 F350) was a Skyjacker 9240. The kit runs the stabalizers stacked, compared to the ones I had before that ran straight across. Problem is, I can't figure out how to install it. The provided U-Bolt that goes over the frame doesn't seem big enough to go anywhere. If anyone has one already installed, pics and help would be appreciated.

I looked at the installation manual and it makes a specific note about lift. If you have over 6" of lift, you need to weld the bracket on.

The manual also says '92-'96 F250 installs need the bracket to either be welded onto the frame or two holes drilled in the frame and be bolted in place. I'm wondering if this applies to F350 installs, too.

Just my observations, mind you.

I believe you may be right. I do have 7" of lift up front but I can't even get the u bolt to go over the frame, like it's not big enough. Guess I'm gonna have to try and find a welder
