JLP Traction Bars Help

Trying to install a set of JLP traction bars. The instructions do not say what hardware goes where So I am thinking that by an elimination process I am supposed to use the old hardware nuts from the stock U Bolts?

However they seem to be to tight, so tight that i can't get the nut more then 2 turns with a 1/2 ratchet.

Anybody that has installed these or JLP himself perhaps can advice me on whats wrong.

I have the L in the garage up on stands as I type this.

Thanks

You should have been sent new nuts for the new U bolts. All new hardware is issued.
