The lower bracket is aligned with the two existing holes in the arm where your old shocks bolted in. then you will need to mark and drill 2 additional holes.

according to nick.. they put a hold on them due to different variations....basically the mounts are exactly the same except for the diff set up you are running.

sorry for the perhaps terribly dumb question but what do the gussets even do for the system? it appears that they are just welded on sort of as a guide for the coils but i can't tell or understand where they contact anything except the frame and what benefit they would bring.
EDIT: where and how do you mount the limit straps? also, what was that piece that was added to the cut off bump stop? it looked like you added a block there or something...

The weld on gussets are to support the factory shock towers. The block you see in the photos is the factory stop that was removed when we trimmed the mount and then re-installed.
