    I did a search and have verified that I have the stock skid plate for my 66 cj5 but could not find how to mount it. When I got the jeep it came detached and I am thinking I should put it on before heading to moab this spring. Does anyone have pics of how it mounts or could explain it to me? Also info on what size bolts I will need to mount it would help a lot. Thanks for any advise!

    4 3/8" x 1" carriage bolts up from the bottom into the 4 holes in the cross member.

    Thanks Windy... I'm guessing it will be obvious which way it goes as I go to mount it? Bent lip up and probably forward?
