I made front brackets to fit around the chassis rails - you have to undo the swaybar plates to get them on, and they need to be a separate part from the sliders (ie: they bolt on) so you can wiggle them on, but I thought it'd be stronger than bolting to the bodymount bits (mine were already bent to somewhat).
Theres more photos here:

There's plenty wrong with my sliders, but (even a bit bent) they still work fine. There are easier ways, but I was having a play with learning welding as I went, and had a lot of fun making these.
cheers,
