X-factor cross brace

Has anyone installed the X-factor cross brace from Morryde? Was thinking about using these help reinforce the spring mounts at the frame, which seem to be a common weak point.

I was going to call Morryde tomorrow about this. I am going to install on my Octane T30F sometime in Nov. But needed to know if the suspension needs to be off the ground or not. I do not have strong enough jacks. stands to support the whole camper here at the house. If it does not, it is pretty straight forward and one could install at home while on a level surface. If you get a chance to call them before me, post the answer. Or we will see if someone responds who has done it at home & how they did it.

I emailed them - apparently the shoulder bolt at the hanger requires replacement, needs a longer bolt to mount the brace. So will def need to be unloaded to get the bolt for the equalizer out. trying to decide between DIY or paying a tech to complete.

Thinking it could be done one hanger at a time, using jacks stands under that side of the frame, and jacks to support the axle's, to take the weight per side. Still a hassle...
