Nice.
Think about bolting them on. Grade 8 bolts with serrated Grade 8 nuts inside the frame. You can find the nuts at Fastenal.

Those bolt holes are for plug welds from what I understand. Any welders out there who can weld these on for me?

They are for welding, but I know a good few folk with them bolted on so you can pull them off after bashing them all up and have them re-powdercoated.

I found that its the WOL folk that really frown upon this. But yea Jason, mine have been bolted on for over a year now with several hard bashings and its still holding up very strong.

My lod rails are bolted on and they can take a beating without moving. I may switch to the evo sliders at some point. Maybe sooner if I can bolt them on. I'm a reformed wal guy. I never even heard about bolting them up.

Looks good. Did you wire it up to your reverse light also or just the sPod?

Just to the spod - don't want to blind anyone on the pavement. I switched my bumper lights to the reverse.
