Something to chew on this week.

I made a lower mount base plate from 1/4" steel to move my passenger side mount further out. It goes over the dished out area, and is supported with 1/4" thick steel gussets over the dished out area. Maybe this will give you some new ideas. Here is a picture of it when it was tacked up and bolted in.
