Hi all, need some help from the pros. I recently acquired a 1992YJ and want to install some stock sidesteps and need to know whether I should use- thread cutting bolts after I drill the holes or nutserts. Attached are two pictures of what I will be installing. I found these on YouTube, but it’s the same step that I will be installing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Personally Id use thread cutting bolts. The tube type ones that came on my 91 used them and were pretty well stuck to the frame.
I would say thread cutting bolts, too.
They offer minimal molestation to the frame.
The problem with riv-nuts is they need such a large hole, though I use them exclusively on anything sheet metal.

Right on. Thanks for the input. I wanted to go with thread cutting but was not sure the frame was thick enough. And, they are easier to install.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
