I know where the large brackets go but it is a tight fit. I have not installed them yet. They go up against the back wall of the fender well that is perpendicular to the tire. The two slots in the bracket line up perfectly on the already present fender bracket. You have to fight like hell to get them up in there. The small bracket that goes on the front side of the fender does not fit well. At least not on my JK. Three holes line up but the fourth was off the pinch weld metal. I have not installed either yet but I will this weekend. I used bearing grease on the washers of the tool supplied for the rivnuts and never had to swap out the washers. Got all the rivnuts on both sides installed in less than an hour.

I also know where the three brackets for the front inner fender liner go. I will install most of this Saturday. I'll take pictures.

These were a little bit of work but look awesome now that they are installed.

Just went back and read your first message to me. You did warn me about the drill bit. I guess I got excited after getting the fronts installed. Thanks fore trying to warn me. And you are right, you can't just get that 17/32 bit anywhere. I looked all over town with no luck.

Did you grab the lock nuts and washers from the eight studs inside the bumper before dropping it off? Just asking.

Yup. And I told them to tape my bolts off before doing whatever they do.

I fought to get my original lock nuts off. Soaked them with penetration oil the night before. But the Brawler went on easily. Still have not figured out how to put some color behind the spider so it is more visible.

Purchased the Rocker Knockers and JKBralwer Rear Bumper yesterday. Northridge is still giving the 5% off as of yesterday but it won't last much longer they said.
