Default Hd off-road relocation kit install

I just got my kit in and I'm having a hard time figuring out how it gets installed when using a gas tank skid. I got the jcr off-road nut strip and I will be ordering a tank skid also. The relocation kit come with three plates per side, I know where one of the plate on in the truck but unsure about the other two? If anyone has pics that can help me out that would be great thanks

You have to stack them, the tank skid and the brackets use the same holes. I installed mine in this order, starting with the closest to the frame.

OEM Hitch
Relocation brackets
Tank skid

Oh, sorry I don't have the 'no-lift' kind, so there's no plate through the floor. I can't really comment on how that installs. I think that you would just put the tank skid on the bottom.

Do you have an aftermarket rear bumper that uses those mounting points also, or plan on installing one or a hitch for recovery?
