Since I had to drill the body I measured four to five times each step before drilling. Also, some of the photos in the instructions were not very clear and I had to figure out where those things were. Then some contortion acts to reach some places. Of course, the fact I'm a new Jeep owner and still learning about where is where also played a significant role. Basically, it took me last Saturday's afternoon and part of Sunday morning to declare it done (including a trip to Home Depot for the 1in hole drill bit). ;-)
Wheeew that's a long time....guess I'm the "eye baller" when it comes to measuring....good thing it works otherwise I'd have holes everywhere. Gonna be doing the gerry can tire carrier on mine as well soon so more to come.

Be careful with this one. Mostly, do not trust the dimensions in the instruction sheet. Take your own. The trickiest holes were on the carrier latch's support frame side. ;-)
