the front skid has 2 holes on the front bottem of the x-member, and uses the same rear holes that the trans skid uses. should just lift right into place.

Make sure your tranny skid goes under your front diff skid so that there is nothing in the way of a slide.

Sears sells them, craftsman tools. Pretty handy. Or try Home de-pot. Here's a good listing. (sorry for the long link) http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/search.d ... rchresults
