1/4", and all the various angle you see in the bed of the truck is for adding structure to it.  Will cut and add it everywhere I can on the top side to give it more structure.

I may be able to get it flat completely since have 2" body lift, if not I'll cut out the plate and build a "dip" in it for the low point of the 241.  This would be simple if only had a 231.

How much bigger is the 231 over the rubi case? I diggn the angle iron for structure too. On my flat skid I only have one main support in the middle from my crossmember so far its held up alright. Might have to add some bracing to mine in the future. You got a mml?

NO MML, and a 231 is smaller which is why it would be no problem.  The planetaries for the 241 are larger and the chain is a bit wider.

Not one on it currently, and I have no intention of putting one on unless when I check my motor mounts they are toast like the trans mount.

I did have a 1" JKS MML on there unless you took it off.

Are they spacers under the motor mounts?  I haven't removed them, just saw the yellow paint of stock motor mounts.

No, I either still have the stock mounts or you do in one of the boxes of junk I gave you.

They are true 1" lift mounts on there, got them from JKS... not the spacer kind. If you want the stock mounts for some reason and I do still have them, they're yours.

I don't.  I have a stock pair of motor mounts sitting here.  I glanced at them and really thought they were stock.  I'm sure it will be beneficial that they aren't.

I hadn't messed with the jeep in about a month or so.
Also have a new Tuffy full sliding rear drawer to put in and then the CJ gate.

Today the jeep got new shoes: 37x13.50-20 Pitbull Rockers



20x10 Rockstar HD's

I'm curious if I'll like it when I pull it out of the garage (hopefully this weekend), and get the star center caps mounted up.
