Hey everyone,

So I picked up a Rusty's rear diff guard and it doesn't have bolts with it. Do I need to pick up slightly longer bolts to do the install? Anyone remember the bolt specs off the top of their head? Just curious, planning installs while at work.. :wink:

I'm also wondering if powdercoating would work well on that diff guard. I'm thinking powdercoating it black would look pretty slick, until the rocks REALLY beat it up!

Thanks a ton everyone.

it helped that I just changed my diff oils and Eddo gave me the torque value :) The bolts were plenty long for the job too.
