    Rear bumper bolts

    Couldn’t I just put a weld nut on the chassis So I don’t have to pull the fuel tank.

    Thanks

    I didn’t think that far ahead so I used pieces of all thread one of the nuts was a real pain but it worked out better than dropping the tank

    Using couplers and threaded rod is a common mod that works great: https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/show...hlight=coupler

    If you have bumpers and overrides, I thought it was impossible to get the bolt through from the outside, and that was why people used the all-thread
