I just want to say that these brackets are beef. Very well made and the laser is cutting on point.
also you can use the stock hardware for mounting. The driver side holes line up perfect with the bumper mount bolts and steering box bolts.
On the passenger side you wold need to pick up some 4'' grade 8 bolts and nuts to further secure the bracket past the 3 bumper mount bolts.
Overall for anyone like me that likes the stock look, these brackets are perfect.

Just dont paint before you do the bumper cut or else you could scrape your paint off the tabs

As you can see, mine are snug. I put some blue paste (rtv or something i cant remember) on the end of the tab while it was bolted on and went like i was going to add the cap back on. The spot that had the paste on the inside of the cap is where i cut a small hole and went up from there. The hole in the bumper on th eother hand isnt great, but the cap covers it up
