looks good. Do you have jam nuts for your tie rod ends?

Nice to see I'm not the only one with golf clubs collecting dust.

how did you mount the "B" pillar to the floor? utilize the old metal plate that mounts down and back against the body or just weld it to a new plate? Got any pics?

Never mind. I removed the old bar and plates and will be making a new one with larger bolts through the floor and will "sandwich" the body with the frame mount.

mine just has a new plate and it has bolts going through it to sandwich the tub between the tie in and the cage. i will get pics soon, right now the jeep is at aoi for gears, tube work, and atlas

Is 1/8" steel good enough or should I go with 1/4" steel for the sandwich?

I don't see 1/8" not working, but you can't go wrong with 1/4"
