Rivnut Tool?

[rOmiLaYu]

I got a project going and I apparently will need one. I need to sink two of them into the side of a vehicle. Just two. I have no desire to buy one as I'm confident that I'll never need it again. Anybody got one they want to loan a fellow ODT'er? I'll throw some ammo at you for letting me borrow it....or better yet, helping a brother out. I have no idea how to use one.

What is the thread size you're installing?

Uh...no idea?

It's for this:

Land Rover Defender Side Mount Jerry Can Holder - by Front Runner

The same trusted and off-rough tough Front Runner lockable Jerry Can Holder, only conveniently reconfigured to mount on the side of the vehicle via a gutter mount.

I have experience with using riv-nuts and installing them.

feel free to reach out when you are ready. No I don’t own a installation tool

I've also used them on my jeep, you don't have to have the tool to install them

Harbor Freight sells a tool pretty cheap, buy it and return it.

The pdf directions state M6 which is metric. Sorry, I don't have any metric sizes.
You can install them without the tool though with a bolt, nut, and washers:

Harbor freight, probably about $20
