          Cool, like I said no rush ( I am no where near being home to do any car related stuff for at least another month and a half) just making sure I didn't miss out.

            Are these 5 bars going to have waterjet cut pieces?

              the mounting brackets for the radius rods & LCA connection points are waterjet cut.
              I have a pile of plasma cut OE tow hook templates that will probably be utilized. I also have a few spare OEM towhooks- which i'll likely use as well.
              I started on one bar thursday- likely to get back at it tomorrow

                    my concern isn't really in the OEM tow hooks. it is however in how to mount new towhooks to the traction bar.

                      I see, I didn't quite understand if you were utilizing the oem hook in the fabrication. Makes more sense now.
