The front fender ones don't have the stand-off, just straight 1/4-20 threaded studs due to the bulge/bead at the bottom of the fenders. Give you some idea of the size needed for the Elevator bolts. |

Right here: https://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f8/r.../#post38506289 You wouldn't recommend painting without taking the rockers off? Or wouldn't recommend dealing with the rusted bolts?

Wanted to see what it looked like and how it might be bleeding and possibly from where. It's raining! |

But if yours is broke and only use it for personal use... Well, there is always an estimate for repair.... |
