Im adding ARBs to my defender as the roof rack has given me a fair bit of body roll (doesnt go off road, dont care about axle articulation)
The rear already had brackets so was a straight swap from the disco,
I dont have any existing brackets on the front axle or chassis so i have purchased bolt on ones.
The kit for the chassis brackets came with m8 rivnuts, but i dont have the correct tool and the bolt method looks fiddly to get right.
Can i not just put m8 threads straight into the chassis instead? There would be 4 for each bracket, or is it too thin
