I printed the manual off and read it a few times. I got a guestion about the holes u drill in the upper bracket. How do u get to the back side of the frame to put the nuts on? And what's the deal with that crush tube thing?

when you drill thru the frame there is a hole in the frame on the other side and what do you mean by the crush tube thing?

The manual says after you drill the holes for the top bracket to put this tube in one of the holes that was already there then flip the bracket down on it I guess then install the washers and bolts? Im not really sure what its for just know they call it a crush tube.

that is so when you crank down the bolt that goes thru it you do not crush in the sides of the frame.

ill try to snap a pic tomorrow. its 2 inch piping i cut the pipe and welded in some little extensions right short of where the bends are. and i think the crush tubes are just the little metal tubes that go through the hole in the frame to hold it in place.
