ouch my back

The stock rear mounting brackets from a stock M7 are worth a look. Like many of you, I built my own but next time I'd look hard at the stock ac ones.
 
a holesaw would work great along with a socket head cap screw for the steering support. why did he need spacers and different mounts for the front? were the stock ones missing off the edge?

Yeah, you've helped me a ton regarding the Edge skid. It does appear though that it takes some work to install an edge. NickSXR recently installed one in his SXR and it was more work than what he thought it was going to be. He had to fab two spacers with mounts for the front mounts. The steering bracket is in the way, so that needs to be modified as well or the skid needs to be moved back to clear it. I think he cut the last few inches off of his steering brackets.

It can be done, but it does take some decent modifications to make it work. I don't know how it compares to a CAT or DOO skid, but i would think the CAT skid would be easier if all you have to do is shave it down, and drill new holes to make it fit.

I posted the mounting instuctions that I used for the Cat skid in the tech Faq section if anyone is interested.
