    Started a new project for the 74 this weekend. Ordered a set of Rocker Knockers along with the Ricochet option from Poison Spyder. Of course they don't make a bolt on kit fot the 75 and older so some modifications are in progress........... here is the first side welded up........

    thompology, that's just it.........they don't!!!!! they only will attach to the 76 and up body mounts..... I was just going to cut and splice it to my mounts but when I put it on the jeep I found out there is no need. What I'm gonna do (already did it) is drill holes in the rocker where it meets up with the channel hat bracing on the jeep. so far it looks like it will be one solid mount. I will get pictures in next day or so.....

    That looks great. I like the rhino lined look of the sliders!

    It's a stainless steel flaming river column. Can't remember the part number but it was about as close to stock dimensions as you can get! I just had to ream out the dash mount a little to get it to fit!

    I wound up ordering my column at the Daytona Turkey Rod Run and got it cheaper than on their website. Also, the guy selling them didnt charge me shipping!!!!
