Phil,

You are right on the tube.  I couldn't find the right size to fit in the
hole in the body.  Look at the centerlines on the tube that inserts into the
body.  That is where I drilled 1/2" bolts through the body and bumper.
There is a bolt with a nut that goes through each of the holes.  When I did
it I had to rent a 1/2" right angle drill to get into the tight area.

-Blake
