Front A arm frame mount reinforcements

[Mikerider]

Over the summer I took a hit with a rock on a trail and folded my front driver a arm mount tab a bit.

decided after straitining the tab that some reinforcement was in order.

ordered up and installed this kit from Barnes 4wd

fit up was great and can’t beat the price.

in process pic of welding the plates on

Was a few hours of work to get all 8 plates welded on but well worth it to have a bit more strength.

I purchased a set of these 6-8 months ago and have just been waiting until I had a good reason to tear apart my suspension. Thanks for posting this, I need to weld mine on.

it’s an easy job. Just lots of laying on your back in weird positions trying to get the right angle to weld.

I lift would have made instal easier for sure

I pulled the lower control arm. Then put some all thread and nuts/washers in place to hold the spacing. Used a combination of large crescent wrench and hammer and dolly to get it back straight
