I don't have any pictures but these are big bolts that run through the subframe (what most of the suspension is bolted to) into the body of the car so they're pretty easy to identify. Print out the diagrams from the first post and take them with you when you check the bolts. The alignment holes are easy to find if you study the diagram and know where to look.

installed rigid collars this weekend no need to replace bolts if you remove them. Were super easy to reinstall.

Did you guys have to remove the exhaust to reach one of the bolts? My exhaust was in the way when I was checking one of the middle bolts

Are you guys just putting the car on jack stands and torquing the bolts? Or are you guys supporting the weight of the subframe first?

If getting the Rigid Collars, is replacement of the rear subframe bolts needed ?? or just the front 3 marked "replace"...normally I would get them all but these things are expensive
