Just 3 bolts on each one. Did it in about 45min. They have locktight on them & there isn't much room to move the ratchet. Left side is even less space because of the transmission cooler close by. So they are tuff to turn all the way out. But I sure like the looks of them.
Yours doesn't have tow hooks or are you just swapping out the stock ones like I did?

I want hooks not loops...don't really care if stainless, I just want the hooks like yours.

Im planning on putting flairs on my back fenders in order to cover up and prevent the rust. Would it be easier or more efficient to use cut out flairs so i can cut out the rust or bolt on ones to cover it up.

Changed my headlights and fog lights

azgilamonster · #**1226** 09-12-2010, 07:20 PM

took it for some exercise in the desert today and down in a big canyon
over a very wash board road to make sure it was put together with all the gum and bailin wire ...( just kidding about the gum and bailin wire) but it was a rough washboard road down into the canyon held up just fine and made it back home.

will post pics once I find the usb cable for the cheap camera, note to self " get a better camera"

Got the windows tinted. Installed some new speakers. and locked my keys in my truck :/ which led to some bonding while i laid in her bed waiting for roadside assistance
