Not my pic. but was told they can make these work for 5" shaft of you let them know.
Good info. I wonder if that general design could be modified to tie into the cross-member or frame-rail. I'm a little iffy about it being connected to the transfer case, but I suppose that's better than not having the loop at all from a safety standpoint.

I like the structural design of the VAS better but i'm also not sure it would fit my big ol' muffler. It looks like it would be in the way.
Going to wait until you report back. @Sharkhunt
I have a set of Bwoody traction bars I'll be installing after the weather clears up.
I'm not sure like the design that connected to the rear of the transfer case. If things go really bad is seems like it would snap that boss off in a heartbeat.
This is a nice piece. But I wonder why companies don't, at a minimum, provide stainless hardware for out of cab applications? Living in the salt belt sucks....
Got my custom loop back from powder coating and installed it this evening. I fabricated this myself. Used 6” standard weight pipe for loop, 3/4” extra heavy pipe for sleeves in cross member & attaching loop to 0.25” x 1.5” flatbar, and grade 8 plated fasteners. I’m a pipefitter/ welder so fairly simple project.

Looks really good! That's basically exactly how I would build mine.
Except for 4wd we would have to use a different crossmember not the trans one like yours. (See OCMikes pic posted above)
