Dec 6, 2022As previously stated these need to be modified to fit correctly. since we are seeing the same issue, it would be simple for the manufacturer to correct it. but apparently, they don't want to or feel its not a big deal. Love the item just wish the manufacturer would correct the issue. Reply from Redline - Sir, now that we have seen this issue more than once and are aware it is not a fluke, we'll get right on that. Being that we do not have a Mopar B-body car handy, could you please reply with the dimensional corrections that are needed? Thank you sir! -

It's Ok.
Apr 13, 2020Concept was good but they did not fit correctly. I had to fix three things to make them work. First I had to bend the B Body mount tangs to fit over the rear shackle mount. Not a big deal. Next the B Body mount bolt hole was oversized for the shackle bolt (18mm vs. 9/16) so I couldn’t use a bolt similar sized to a shackle. I had to drill out for a larger bolt (3/4) and could not use the bushings to protect the inside of the shackle mount. Lastly, the slot for the rear of the bracket where it mounts to the cross rail was not the correct distance from the shackle mount; I had to auger out the slots on the B Body Mount to make them fit. These slots should be cut longitudinally, not laterally, for a correct fit. None of these issues were show stoppers but with a couple of minor design tweaks they would be perfect 5 star and bolt right in place.
