looks to me as they just used the factory control arm brackets cuz they were already there and welded the top. guess that was easier than takin everything off the frame completely and startin from scratch.
jus my .02
but the truck looks sick!

Good Observation Guys, Basically thats the way pure performance made the kits for easier installation for the avaerage joe. my goal after I get my 3" kings for this thing is to ditch that cheezy shock hoop and build a custom one thats completly welded on...
