Nope, used ballistic fab brackets... They've got some good stuff, and super cheap, I'd check them out. You can get all your brackets for under $100, $75 if you are creative.

Right now I'm not sure. I'm thinking of making clips like stock, but using two instead of one to hold it down better and the coil will rotate into place and to take it out you just rotate it out of the clips. As for the control arms, the lowers mount below the coil bucket. The bracket from Ballistic Fab is a coil bucket/lower control arm mount. Get two birds with one stone. As for the upper, it mounts to the top of the truss.ktm racer 419 said:how are you planning on keeping the coil springs from falling out?
those brackets are deigned for a flat bottom spring unlike our xj coils.
gonna build up a cup in the middle?

I don't have a passenger upper control arm. I'm running the Rock Krawler 3-Link system.xrayjeeper83 said:XJ jeeper did you get the upper mount (driver side) from Ballistics? I have been looking and all I can find is a passenger side.

It looks like the new brackets mount the shocks the same way as stock, perpendicular to the axle instead of parallel. This way the shock doesn't bind when the axle flexes.XJ_Jeeper01 said:That's how I mounted my shocks, right behind the coil buckets.
