DC wants 38.50 each for the sill reinforcement plates ( nutcerts or nut strips) that mount the trailer hitch.
Is there another source?

Maybe you can fabricate this thread wire for your bolt.
I made a set, took about 20 min. JIM.andyr354 said:I just made my own from some 1" x 3/16" flat. Slide it in, mark hole locations, drill holes, weld nuts to back side. Simple and cheap.

Should I only expect to put in three bolts per side? No way to get in that forward bolt ahead of the frame hump?
I don't know about you, but I don't make $180 an hour.:spin1: :doh: Like I said took less than 20 min. to make a set. JIM.XJ_ranger said:am I the only one who thinks its worth $60 to not have to deal with making some part or fishing some nuts thru the frame?
