Long time lurker, first time poster!
I was hoping someone might be able to help me out with this one.. I have a 2016 prado 2.8lt with a TJM Outback bullbar. I got a set of those Roadsafe recovery points and went to fit them about 20 minutes ago expecting:
Instructions seem to indicate the two forward-most mounting bolts would be used. The front one came out and I fitted the M12 bolt easily but the top bolt came out and is M10 and seems to go into a tapped thread on the chassis rather than a captive nut as I was expecting.. I saw no mention of drilling out existing threads or anything. I've attached a photo of the front bolt removed to see the thread I mean.
Anyone know what the go is?

- The front-most bolt would go into an existing nut welded/tapped into the chassis rail
- I'd need to take the front of the top two bolts off and slide a captive nut plate in the hole just up from the bolts and fix the top one with a M12 bolt in the supplied kit
