Default Got my 9.5ti on my shrockworks...kind of

Hey guys, finally got my 9.5ti and installed it today on my shrockworks mid width. Only one problem...
After getting the skid on, I couldn't get the front two warn bolts through the skid and into the winch as instructed. They seem to be too short. Did anyone else run into this problem?

here she is by the way...

If I remember correctly the front 2 bolts are actually skid plate bolts that are supplied in the hardware. Been a while since I put my mid width and 9.5ti on the jeep.

The bolts that came with the winch were 1 1/4 ". I went out and got 2" and they fit perfectly now. Now the only problem is trying to get this one square nut in that fell out while I was driving...

I had the same issue when I installed my Warn 9.5 ti to a Benchmark Elite front bumper. I went and purchased new grade 8 bolts that were longer and everything worked great.
