Here is a breakdown on the bolts: 2 forward frame mounts (where JATE rings would go w/out a trailer hitch mounted) 4 attaching the arms to the receiver 2 vertical bolts attaching to the frame near the bumper Thanks, Lance   Gary Schroeder (Rovernutt) New Member Username: Rovernutt Post Number: 1 Registered: 05-2003 Posted on Wednesday, November 26, 2003 - 09:45 pm:    I thought the standard torque setting on a LR is "tighten it till it strips, then half a turn back"? ;)
