I shoe horned the heat shield back on as well, when I installed it, was easy enough. I have no idea what torque is on those 2 upper bolts so I just kinda gave it 4 or so ugga duggas from my mid torque and set the sway bar end links to 60.
2-4 ugg duggas usually do it

Well got one on so far with RokBlokz mud flaps IT WORKS!
Have to cut a 1/2” X 1/2” slot in mudflap bracket and mounted the sway bar brace on top of the mudflap brace and did not need a spacer between frame bracket and reinforcement bracket, left it gold to start but I have to rattle can everything when done, also a longer metric bolt is something I am going to get…..Jack

Most likely overkill, but I had a local welder combine the sway bar bracket and the rokblokz bracket (note the diagonal brace is welded too)

Nope. Only two bolts.

12-1.75. Stock nut is 12-1.5 for my 2020 JT.
I bought 12-1.75 by 90mm grade 10.9 bolts from HD. Conveniently came in a two pack haha.

Man, what do you measure at 3" so much you are wearing out the tape?

Got mine installed today, with the RokBlokz mudflap brackets also installed. Fits perfect. Thanks @Jaxmax for providing a great template for where the mudflap brackets needed to be modified.

Installed mine on Monday, checked for any cracks around the welded nut good there, decided to use the factory bolts, leave off the splash shield on the driver’s side and blue locktight them. Not sure if just my imagination but the rear feels stiffer with the reinforcements. Does anyone else notice a difference?

Thinking about cutting the old brackets off and just going with the MC braces. Thoughts? Putting them on next week.
