I installed my tow bracket this morning. It was pretty easy, took about an hour.

First problem was that the end caps on the torsion bar protectors were held on
by large allen head bolts. Noe of my allen wrenches were large enough, until I
dug into the SAE set and found an 8 mm equivalent. That fit well enough, and
fortunately they came loose.

The main torsion bar bolts cameoff pretty easily, and although ther ewas a little
motion, they stayed reasonably aligned. I had been concerned about that!

Trying to get the barcket in place was tricky until Ibalanced it on the floor jack and
lifted it into place. Got the new bolts aligned, and tightened down the bar. The
fron two bolts are none too long though. The rears had to be just about tight
before they would thread in. Everything tightened up well though.

I need some pictures to show it in place, but it is very low profile.

Found a few othe things to llook at, there are a few little holes in the front of the
belly pan. None of them look like rust,but they do need to be sealed!
