Anyone know the size of the 2 rear seat back bolts? I think I might have thrown mine out.

Idk I'll find out what we pay for them here. They are 30lb bottles. We get them by the pallet lol

Depends on how much weight you want to carry. Some of the Thule and SportRack ones just clamp to those bars, more than 150-200 pounds you need to get rain gutter clamps.

Didn't try starting in Neutral, but I know my reverse lights don't always come on. Will it crank in P with a bad NSS, or am I looking at something else?

Not sure if this may be your issue but every once in awhile my 90 xj will crank for hours if i try and will not start. Well i found the problem to be my cps wireing. Everytime i try to crank it more than 2 times i hop out, wiggle the wires, hop back in and VROOOM!. The heat from the exhaust has melted the wires i believe. May help may not.

If nss is completly bad it shouldnt crank at all. Mines dirty and sometimes need to pull back as if i was droppin it into reverse and it will start. Good luck.

Or a big set of tires you gotta look at for months while you wait to buy your lift. It'll drive you crazy.
