I need/want a couple more tapped holes on the bottom of the frame rail in the same diameter as whats already there, I think that must be 10 or 12-mm. This is for a skidplate mount.
At any rate, is it recommended to drill and tap the frame or to drill and use a rivnut/nutsert. I am impressed with the rivnuts I used for the aux tank strap mounts and for the snorkle a-pillar mount so I think they would be up to the task. I've never looked but are the existing threaded holes using welded/captured nuts on the inside of the frame rail? Thanks.
