I didn't realize that those nut strips just slip in. I'm installing a hitch and even though I have minimal rust, those nuts being under the Jeep for over 20 years rusted and I'm having trouble getting the hitch bolts in. If I can't clean them out today I'll delay the hitch installation and order new nut strips. Thanks for posting the video.
I just received my new nut strip and I'm doing this project tomorrow. Did you have to remove the two muffler bracket bolts to remove the passenger side nut strip?
So when I put my trailer hitch on, I had to cut out holes to put the $35 plates into the frame. I wonder why some Jeeps already have the access holes cut.

Great clip. Just what I needed for this job!

Yes I removed those bolts holding the exhaust, not sure one or two.

No need to put holes, it’s all available from factory, I was just cleaning the rust with driller.
