street stock class rules clarification

I'm interested in running in the street stock class for this event. looking over the rules this caught my attention;

1.3 Frame
1.3a Frames must be OEM or direct OEM design aftermarket replacement. Frame reinforcement allowed.
1.3b Frame rail modifications are not allowed, including cutting holes in the frame rails for custom brackets (except as allowed in 1.7 below). All bolt on or weld on custom brackets are permitted.
1.3c Frames cannot be drilled or punched to lighten them.

this makes it sound like cutting into my frame to make room for out boarded rear shocks on my wrangler would disqualify me from this class. Am I reading this right? or can I go ahead and start hacking away? :D

the section 1.7 mentioned doesn't say anything abt shock mounting as far as I understand. but here it is anyway:

1.7 Suspension
1.7a Stock configuration suspension designs required. Example: leaf from factory, leaf for competition, coil/leaf from factory, coil/leaf for competition, etc... Double shackle, air shocks or coil over systems are allowed with a 10 point penalty (+10).
1.7b No limitation on suspension attachment point measurements, but overall wheelbase MUST remain +- 3 inches of stock. 1.7c Manual or automatically controlled suspension systems that compensate ride height are not allowed. Front bumper mounted winches may be used as an adjustable limiting strap for the front axle. Rear axle winches are also allowed as an adjustable limiting strap.
1.7d Shackle reversal approved for leaf springs. Shackle hangers may use holes cut in the frame for leaf spring shackle bushings. Rear leaf springs mounted inside the frame are allowed (frenched).
1.7e Portal Axles are not allowed.

fantastic! I'm a full bodied rig and my wheelbase is definitely within the 3" plus or minus of stock. so when it says frame rails it's talking abt the top and bottom portions? not cutting into the sides? also, what are my requirements for a cage? I seem to remember reading I needed a 6 point cage, where stock TJ is only 4 point and then attaches to the windshield. if I run tube down through the dash that should quality me? and finally... I need to have a kill switch and fire extinguisher, correct? beyond that I think I'm already within the rules. so I'm relatively close to being ok to compete.

Your windshield counts as the 6 points. Ignition counts as a kill switch in your case. Yes you need a fire extinguisher
