They are sturdy enough without those bolts, I do recommend getting the Vermont White Cobalt steel bits. They cut through frame with no problems, and I drilled them all 5/16 instead of 1/4, that wiggle room was a must when puttin the sliders in. You will also need a jack, to hold it place and get it nice and tight.
I am gonna work on a skid plate with teflon inserts soon, I am puttin the hood scoop in tomorrow. Only a few months till Moab!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
