So, installing a few skid plates today, i got the nutzerts and the tool it comes with, i'll be damned if i can figure out how to do it.

How do you use the nutzert tool to get the nutzert to stay in the hole to put up the skids?

I can put a remote starter in an audi but i can't figure this out...go figure.

Hold the wrench that you see in the pic in a stationary position and tighten the bolt on the bottom to 25-30ft lbs. Be sure not to over tighten them b/c it will ruin the nutzert.

that actually helped, thank you. I wasnt torquing it enough.

UNfortuantly, off to lowes i go, the bolts they sent with the gas skid are WAY too big.

The bolts should be 12mm. Usually the holes are rusted over and need to be cleaned out. Some PB blaster and a wire brush would help. A tap would be awesome..

If the skid is mopar, then the bolts are probably the right size..

tried cleaning them, wire brush, the whole nine yards, measured the bolts, i purchased new 12mm bolts, you can definatly see a difference in size, the 12mm ones i purchased went right in after a little push to get them started in the threads.
