    Mine arrived in perfect shape. Boxes looked almost new. I guess it depends on how pissed off the driver is at the time.

    Just bolted everything up, could not get the front skid plate snug enough to use any factory hardware other than the front two bolts. As of now i have the front skid bolted to the tran skid with the front on the bottom, as that is how the instructions pictured them. I see in the instructions the aluminum (which is what I have) don't use the middle holes. I just want to make sure they are bolted securely as right now they would flex quite a bit with a strong hit. Any input?

    You will use those two larger post to bolt up. Instructions need updating. They won't go even with all hardware loose? I've not had this issue come up before.

    And just to clarify, only the holes with the spacers in the front? Not the rear set with spacers?

    Having trouble following you.

    There are 6 oem bolts that get used to install the front skid. Two large ones up front, two inside the front large post and two small ones in the back small post.

    Understood now, the instructions were confusing me a bit about which holes get used on aluminum. I'll try again after lunch and a beer.
