Here's mine, 1/2" plate with gussets welded to frame. Cut bronco tbar mount in half and welded that to the plate/underside of frame. For added beef i braced over to the engine crossmember. Trac bar is superlift adjustable unit from early bronco, works like a charm!

anyone else have anymore pictures? I did buy the one off of broncograveyard thinking it would work ok, but its really not fitting up to the frame well. Since the frame is not exactly 90 degrees at the steering box, the bracket fits awkwardly. I think if i worked on the bracket i could get it to work, but just need some ideas.

and any pictured of bracing to the engine X-member is appreciated as i plan on doing this. Thanks.

I'm hoping to use this bracket from ballistic fab:



I'm also going to tie it into the engine crossmember to reduce stress on the frame.
