    I acquired some really nice rocker guards without hardware. The pre-filled holes lineup underneath with some hex shaped holes in the body. What do I need to mount this and where can I get it? Thanks

    Not sure. I haven't been under enough TJs to Know. I'll ask my TJ buddies, and get back to you.

    My TJ buddies say they were for mounting factory accessories like steps and guards, but they have never had a TJ with the accessories on them so they do not know how the mounting hardware would be used. Looks like a hole for rivnuts.

    I was thinking rivnuts, but wasn't sure. Glad to know I was going the right direction!
