I go with the size based off of the embossed areas. Of the factory stampings
Made a little more headway this weekend, trial fitted my Mad Dog strengther kit and then welded one side in fully ! Committed now !

Well, i've been busy welding away at the maddog kits ! i've the long kit modified and installed, rear sway bar mounts in, front sway bar kit fitted just the engine mount and rear long kit to fit, the etch primer the media blaster sprayed is wicked stuff, its a grinder job to remove to weld back on to clean metal !

Have you tried to fit the doors back in after you welded in the Mad Dog Kits to make sure your gaps have not tightened up?
Best to find out now.

I love this build, great work!
The stiffening kit is a big improvement.
Keep it going!
