I installed these yesterday. I found the first one extremely difficult so I pulled it back out to figure out why. The threads on the bump stops are painted, so even when removed from the Jeep it is incredibly difficult to thread the nuts into place. I ended up using a spot of DW40 and running the nut on and off over and over again removing the paint until I could easily do it by hand. It was night and day difference installing them the second time around. I highly encourage others to do the same. Hope this info helps others.

Hmm, maybe I just dont know how to use it correctly I have the same one just a different color. Also on the bottom side of the extension did you use a standard socket wrench?
yes, well a 3/8 drive with socket
