Default mounting hardware for rubicon rails

got a free set of the Rubicon rock rails, brand new. Only problem is no hardware to mount them....
No bolts no nuts no screws no washers no nothing. I guess it's a fair trade off for free.

can someone tell me what proper hardware I need to mount them for the 2 door. Mopar part numbers would help too.

thanks

Don't order that stuff from the dealer. They're gonna want around $50 for a couple nuts and bolts. Here's the list of what you'll need. You can get everything at most large auto parts stores.

(4) M8x1.25x30mm body bolts
(2) M8x1.25 u-nuts
(8) M6x1.0 washered nuts

Thanks, for the quick reply, I'll stop by the auto parts store tonight.

I found in the Qudratec the mounting instructions for the rails and it shows the parts but no sizes, no description, or part numbers.

My 4dr had a set of holes that were already threaded, but by looking at that picture, the 2dr doesn't. So, you'll need (4) of those u-nuts, not (2). My bad......

If you already have the Sahara steps there's no need for the threaded inserts because they will be already there.

Lowes has it all, at good prices in their hardware drawers.
