Same basic thing, but I'm using a piece of 5 ton frame for one extra inch of lift to offset for the weight of the motor and all. It will be a more involved, because I have to get creative with the steering to make it like I want for tire clearance.

Yes I welded plates to the sub frame on the sides, but they will be bolted to the main frame, mainly if I ever had to remove it for some reason. I still have to drill and bolt the side plates, but it has 3, 1/2" grade 8 bolts on each side through the top of the subframe into the botttom of the main frame holding it for now.
