With this concern that you all have, I've made a new bracket that extends lower. This should clear perfectly. It mounts the same way as the original design, however just extends down another 1" and has a stronger backing (taper back to the mounting). This puts the mounting hole for the shackle lower adds strength with additional metal.

To order this design, just add "lower bracket" to the comments and I'll make sure to make that style.

Do you have a picture of the lower brackets installed?

Here are some pictures of the new lower mounts. They clear fully and the shackle can be pulled up past horizontal. I've also taken a picture with the original design on the passenger side to show the difference. Pics below:

Nice update! It would be helpful to show that it clears with the 99-02 "fat lip" front bumper as well.

Anyone want to lend me one to try???

Actually, I have a set going to a customer and they'll have theirs this week. I'll ask them to get similar photos.

I have two sets of brackets that are primed and ready for paint. I have have them out in time for Christmas I believe, however I'm traveling starting Friday. If anyone would like a set, let me know. They're the extended versions that also clear the '99-02 bumper.

They can be ordered on the bottom of this page:

I’ve got some pictures from a 99+ front bumper. The new brackets hang lower and clear the front easily. I know a few wanted to see pictures of these.

Do you remember what size bolts? I tried matching them at the hardware store and it seemed like it was between 60 and 70mm.

Sorry for not replying to these earlier. I've had several orders and have two sets fabricated earlier today to go out this week after paint.

The bolts are 12mm x 1.5
the short ones are 35mm the long ones are 65 mm.
