Ok, so I know this must have been answered here already, but I cannot find this. My search-fu is failing me today...

UCP/skid plate bolts should be set to 20 ft-lbs?

Front tow hook bolts torqued to 60 ft-lbs?

Sliders/nerf bars should be torqued to ?????

I want to put the stock nerf bars and skid plate back on and remove the brush guard before I sell/trade it.

For me good and tight is all I need.

I like mine to swing so I can hook up chains when I need too

Replace with slider if you hit the trail enough but is anything put on the bolt anti-size

Ok, this is reasonable.

I mean the bolts that hold them to the frame. The brushguard is held behind the tow hook mounts, and I want to remove the brush guard. I'm not talking about the actual shackles.

I have sliders now, I want to put the chrome nerf bars back on.

Keep the UCP, brushguard and sliders. The dealer will not give you less or more with theses on. Sell them here or Craig list and you can make some money back. I've seen OEM UCP go for $300 sliders $400 and brushgruad $250.

Right, I'm keeping them to either put on my next H3/H3T or sell if the next one comes with any of that.

Anyone know how much to torque the bolts for the sliders/nerf bars? I'll keep searching....
