Source good sockets sets. Not cheap chinesium ones.
The bolts of the brackets come from factory VERY tight!!!!!

That is correct 100%, I stripped one of the bolts and had to bring back to dealer to ask them to loosen up the rest so that I could head back and fit my crash bars.

I installed the Hepco SS crash bars, you can refer to this thread: https://www.africatwinforum.com/thr...4-atas-es-from-sg.47846/?post_id=449965&nested_view=1&sortby=oldest#post-449965

I would say the rating is about 5, you just need the proper tools to do the job. A two men team would make it easier too.
