As the question I picked one up today and my van hasn't got the fittings, so if someone could have a look that would be grand.

Cheers all

Mine was fitted with M8 nuts and bolts on the chassis rails but I've now fitted M8 rivnuts .there is already 3 captive nuts in the subframe.i can't remember how it bolts up to the deform panel because I cut it off and threw it away :lol:
