Default HELP: LoD stinger, no install hardware

was I supposed to get a kit of bolts and nuts? The online directions would indicate yes. Didn't get any, I'll run to the hardware store but what should I be getting? Size, grade, qty?

looks like I only got package one of two so far. The second package is due monday. :(

So just tell me the bolt size, and grade and I'lllgo get them now.

thanks!!

Is this second hand or purchased new from LoD? If new, call them and get the correct hardware.

new, looks like ups didn't give me the second package and they got separated in shipment. Certainly not LoD's fault. I have a vm in to LoD now and Dave at NorthRidge is pestering them too.

Since I'm a fool and overly excited with the new bumper, I already took the old one off before checking to see that I had all my installation hardware.

Ah, I see. The hardware LoD provides is grade 5 and 8 stuff.

There are 8 bolts for the bumper, Two or four for the winchplate. Six for the skidplate, if you purchased that. I have NO idea of the sizes. There are also spacers and two special nuts for the winchplate bolts. You are best off waiting for David to do his magic.

Here is WOL's writeup for install. Large pics might help you figure out size, etc.

LoD shorty stinger. Love it, it is a freaken' work of art.

Got the remaining UPS package yesterday and redid the whole thing. Honestly the part that took the most time was getting the stock bumper off.
