hey thanks. I would have been done but rust and other OT projects always seem to bite the calendar.
I reuse the running board mounts (cut them down and weld them to the frame) but other guys have made really sharp and functional mounts from tube. one thing about reusing is you will have a hard time putting the third one on, it is right at the front leaf perch. I build a hanger from strap to the fender/running board attachment and it works great.
I have done a few, check out my user profile for the photo galleries of the others.
