They were never used or installed, and even had the Nissan bar code labels still stuck on them. I spent another $4 at the hardware store for some grade 8 M8x1.25 bolts. Installation took a few minutes, it was nice how the skids each had two slotted mounting points; that way I could thread in two bolts, slip the skid in place, then put the other bolts on.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_400\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-400\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-400\" src=\"https:\/\/projectkeira.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/raine_ft_pro4xskid1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.projectkeira.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/raine_ft_pro4xskid1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.projectkeira.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/raine_ft_pro4xskid1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.projectkeira.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/raine_ft_pro4xskid1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-400\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Here&#8217;s the back side of the oil pan skid;
