NOT Crank them down or use an impact wrench when installing them as it would
void the warranty because the bumpers were made thinner then a stock
bumper and if you cranked the bumper bolts down it would distort the metal
and actually put a ring around the bolt area and could crack the chrome.
just passing on what they told me! they are a nice bumper and look good on the trucks but no were near what a factory one can look like from a reputable
chrome platter. Just saying,
