Here are the freshly welded brackets, which were ordered as stock replacements for the Jeep Comanche (MJ).
For some reason the engineers at Jeep decided these would be a good idea on the pickup truck, but not the station wagon. As it turns out, this seems to be a worthwhile and easy form of preventative medicine for XJ owners.

I have heard of more than one instance of these stock brackets in the lower picture getting torn from the body as a result of fourwheeling. I credit Paul Weitlaff for sharing the idea for this modification on his web page.

Cleaning the surface of the uniframe was essential for welding. I have since followed up on this mod with some paint and a bit of left over "Herculiner" floor coating.

Here is a picture of the stock bracket configuration with stock control arms.

Part numbers for the lower MJ brackets are: PN55005148 and PN55005149
