what hardware did you order? most ppl just use grade 8 bolts or self tapers. iv never had an issue with mine being self tappers.

well jcr sells the hardware that comes with their sliders brand new all the washers, nuts, bolts, tappers, etc...

also since stealthcherokee's hitch came with nut strips he sold tjkiller98's jcr ones to me cause he bought tjkiller98's gas tank skid which was originally mine...

also it seems (quite unfortunately) that the tire i have waited so long to get and was going to get soon!!! are backordered for quite a bit longer than i would feel comfortable running the tires i currently have...so i changed my tire decision for the better and a little more expensive...i am going to get 33x13.5x15 Pit Bull Rockers
