    So just went to put mine on and the front acorn nut on the right side turns and turns and never gets closer to coming off. I'm guessing either the threads on the nut or bolt are stripped. Any ideas?

    the stud is tack welded to the exhaust headers. I'm sure that the weld has broken and the stud is spinning. It may be possible to get a grip on it from the back side and take the nut off.

    11,000 miles later the belly pan has stopped a bunch of stuff

    I just changed my oil and I removed the belly pan. The paint was worn, the front was slightly bent, I found a couple rocks inside, and I had some scrapes along the outside edges from leaning hard two up. I guess what I'm saying is I'm glad I installed this early on. Just the piece of mind that I have some protection down there is worth the price of admission. I have found myself on dirt roads or detours and that plastic reservoir or the oil filter getting damaged never entered my mind.
