Budbuilt front skid install Question

[Blundberg5]

I've searched on here and looked for videos but can't find an answer so hoping for some help. For anyone who has installed a budbuilt front skid, did you reuse factory bolts or did they provide hardware? I see they sell replacement hardware but it is for full 4 piece skid sets and no option for only the front.

I picked up the skid used so not sure if it included hardware from the start. Thanks in advance

when my other 4R get's home I'll snap a picture for you. I don't remember how we did to be honest.

okay so you can reuse the 4 bolts no problem. on my other one they installed it quickly while my second 4R was there for some work. Pictures coming shortly.

Awesome, thank you for the info! I had emailed them but based on what I’ve seen in this forum them are busy all the time so response is slow.

I don’t remember if they provided. But I upgraded to heavy washers and a grade 8 equivalent bolts. Love my Bud Built and they have taken some hard hits and show the wear. Before getting my lift it was hard to not hit things and these skids are solid.

As I mentioned yesterday you could use the stock bolts but like the previous poster said it would not be a bad idea to at least go with a larger washer as shown is done in my install.

Thank you both for the info, I’ll grab some bigger washers before install.
