    I think normally they are bolted on under, as to allow the strap to come up through the rail, does it make you over wide?

    I thought you were allowed 3" for securement?

    I have wiring running along the bottom frame flange. But yes, I thought same as you, tick strap behind rub rail that way.

    It looks goofy this way.

    Well your bolting surface would be up, as in rotate it 90 degrees from its current orientation you have it side mounted, im thinking upside-down

    I passed this the other day!!!
    Took A bit to get the courage to commit to it but really wasn't impressed being behind it

    Was hooked to a late '90's gm 1/2 ton pickup. Draggin a ss !
    Looked like it was a 3/4 or 1 ton work van, at one time......

    He was riding the white line and it did reach all the way to or just over the dotted!

    passed a Trooper even ,,, nothing,,,, must have felt it looked like too much work!

    I hate it when a trooper won't stop someone like that or when they drive right by a stranded motorist.
