If I wanna keep the half shafts how can I seat that up? Can I just bolt on to upper CA or would I need another one and a bracket on top

weld a plate to the upper CA and the bolt the bag to that then you will have to make an upper mount for the bag as well.

You are correct. You cannot weld to the cast metal control arms.

Ditch the awd for the best bag setup :imo: Do you not have any shocks brandon? Or did they mount them on the lca to the frame somehow?

Ditching the awd is extremely tempting but I'm in new england and the snow can get a little crazy here, but knowing myself ill end up switching up my set up again
