I am building a JK rig.

I need opinions from JK and TJ owners here.

Facts:
-I need to cut out the rear body washer/nutserts and make new.
-All of the body mounts need replaced.
-I hate the JK style body mounts and frame mounts.

Goal:
-Install TJ boatside body mounts.
-Use TJ hardware to mount body to frame

Question?
-Why hasn't anyone done this?

I would think that it would make your roll cage stronger if you was to do it that way. Also I would think it would be a good idea to weld shut all the unnecessary holes in the outside of the frame. Or get the Frame plug kit like I have to plug the main ones.

I was thinking about welding the holes up as well as back halfing the frame for strength. I prefer not to and just beef it up though, still figuring it out.

Thanks
