Default AU UTE tow bar installtion help

Hey guys.
Just got my self a second hand Tow bar Au UTE tub tray,

Now I received 11 small bolts all the same size about M8 or M10 I will confirm,

But it seems I also need 4 large bolts that mount to the chassis.

Am I correct?

If any one has photos they can post up that would be great.

I will takle some photos in the afternoon and post up so you can see what I have .

I would like to install this week :togo: but will see.

Buddy I'm sure you are right had a look at another AU and thats the way they have it done.

So it is all good But here is the photos of what I have does it look like there is enough? I think so .

The 2 low tensile bolts are a bit odd but : will sort out.
