cowboy 4x4 ford van

Nice work! How do they mount?

 

[cowboy4x4]

They bolt through the pinch seam and then a bracket/brace goes to the frame.

Trial fit

I like the look! Did you isolate them somehow (body mounts) or they attached hard and will that effect the body to chassis movement?

 

[cowboy4x4]

I'm going to put some sort of bracing to the frame, there are five bolts going through the pinch seam, I think what I'll do is have two brackets at the back and two at the front and nothing in the middle. That should have enough distance to allow any body/frame movement.

I would have to go look at my van to be sure (sorry, coffee time right now), but is there a way to run the bracing to the body mounts like many of the Jeep rocker guards do? That would help marry them to the frame/body, but still allow some flex. I see Oz's concern about having the slider mounted to frame and body at the same time. Might tear the pinch seam over time.

On my Truck I had the mirrors whited out, so i figured I would do the same to the van, trying to get away from the "white work van" look.
