I was wondering if anyone can tell me who has put this part on there XB to measure from original holes in unibody to the holes they had to drill to make this part work for us? Also can you post pictures of where this brace ties into rear suspension.

I have my brace waiting for install also. PM Dave Moulton (toyxBox), and he can answer your questions about the install. He was the first one that I know on SL to install it.

I think that he used rivets to get it on there. He posted some pictures a while back. I've been lazy about installing mine. I'm thinking of using rivets to install myself and then take it somewhere to get hit with a few spot welds.

What kind of price are you guys paying for this brace? I've looked it up and it was fairly expensive; like $400!

i told you in the pm. you put it on and mark the spot to drill. move the center of the drilling back 1/2 of the diameter of the hole. drill there...
no measurements are needed...

it might take 1 hour to do...maybe less if you know the secrets to make it go faster...maybe i'll try to write up some helpfull hints...(if GT4 doen't get me first...)
