ok so I cut out the area for the tow hooks on my 05 and can get the M bolt in ok (longer stud to the back?) but how in the heck do you get your hands up in there to tighten everything down? Am I missing something like taking off the bumper or do I just need to struggle through it? help a novice with a wrench out here fellas!

I used a couple extensions and a universal swivel joint on a ratchet. A few days later, I cut the bottom of my bumper off. Should have done it the other way around. Would have made the hook installation MUCH easier.

I've got 1 almost done but was running out of daylight and needed a deep well 15mm socket so I called it a day and headed for WallyWorld to get a socket.

Done! Amazing what a deep well socket with a swivel and an extension can do for a fella! I did paint them yellow so I will put a couple pics up in the photo sections. Thanks.

I used a hole saw to cut 3" holes in the front facia unerneath the mounting locations. I cleaned them up so they almost look factory, but you wouldn't spot them by looking at the front of the Jeep unless you were looking for them.
