I am now ready to install the Mopar skids on my KJ. Do I use the Nutserts or regular bolts? If I use the bolt method will I have to drill through crossmembers to bolt the skids on? (engine, transmission, transfer) Also would I need a grade eight bolt or better?

People will say the nutzerts are fine.
Some people have problems with the nutzerts spinning freely and making it hard to get the bolt out to take off a skid.

Just to save myself a headache (because things never go right for me) I used bolts where possible. I drilled through the cross member and used bolts.
