Saw this for real last week, really coming on and looking more and more solid. Made me quite ashamed that my mine's languishing in the corner of my workshop.

The roll center is 42" from the floor.  The roll centre of the body is around the top of the front panel and the boot lip.
I have mounted the front using the bumper mounts fixed to a drop plate, the bumper mounts are at 35" from the ground. The rear is mounted on a triangular frame that fixes to the rear supention struts and the boot lock.
