[QUOTE="Tankota, post: 868921, member: 16157"] Do everything on it more heavy duty than you think it needs. Otherwise you'll end up doing stuff twice...like me:flipoff: 1 1/4" pipe didnt bend. I braced it between the "y". I ripped the whole thing off the axle once so I went with much thicker metal on that mount and braced and gusseted it since this pic was taken. If you are gonna mount it to a cruiser axle then really add alot of gussets and braces cause the cruiser housing is THIN. I used a 5/8" heim at the top. Only reason it has lasted is that it was VERY good quality. I mounted the shackle to the stock crossmember. This crossmember is thin so again be careful with welding to it. [/QUOTE]
