Ok well I got the upper control arm reverse pie cut.. and it gave me the max drop the bag was gonna allow. so i'm pleased. It shortened the lift that the lower arm was allowing by like half an inch haha but who cares... The spindle moves 11 3/4" and I took some measurements n found that right now, the fender lip will be 31" off the ground at full lift... so after the bodydrop, it'll be about 27 1/4"... What do you get CL???

Not trying to beat anyone up, just trying to help. For the amount of time you have into this bag setup, why would you even flinch on the fact of gusseting the bag mount like other recommend? Yes yours is not welded to the outer face of the frame and it has more support than most. Yes the bag is wider than the mount. But is it impossible to tie the upper mount to the face of the frame? NO. You are a creative guy, or else you wouldn't have considered doing the extra work... i.e. going inside the frame with the bag plate. I am not trying to be rude, just saying that you should gusset it.
