or is it a direct bolt up?

I did the same thing with rail extensions. No relocating was necessary with the extensions; it will depend if the Ice Age rails have the same mounting points for the suspension as the factory rails. Should be able to measure the holes and compare quickly to confirm. It was a great mod, made all the difference in powder. I geared down at the same time, which also helped.

I believe I just went down one tooth on the top gear. Been a few years, little fuzzy now. Throw up some pics showing how you relocated the rear mount back.
