How did you mount your Rear AFCOs??
I got some Madman brackets with my shocks your supposed to weld to the shock mounting bracket on the axle then bolt the shock to the madman bracket. I really didnt want to weld it on so I just tuned the shock and mounted it up the normal way with a grade 8 bolt and a spacer. The adjustment **** on the shock does clear the UMI drag bar but its kinda close. Do I need to be worried about side to side movement on the sway bar hitting the ****?

Ya I just decided I didnt want to weld them. The only welder I had available was a flux wire welder and I just didnt trust it to penetrate deep enough. Then I just started thinking about a bolt in application.
Heres the bracket b4 the final adjustments and mounting. We had to mill down the bolt head and the inside of the bracket just a bit so the shock body didnt hit anything.

We had a MIG and TIG at the shop but no way to get the car there, or the welder to the garage. Plus I decided I wanted a bolt in application. The machine shop owner thinks the alum will be strong enough thats why we went so much thicker with it over the supplied steel brackets.
