If I remember correctly there is a stud in the fender that goes there and you fasten with the nut on the bottom

There was most likely a washer or two for fender height.

Yea, and its the longest darned stud you ever couldn't reach!!

Agreed, I just went through this as well and it is indeed a very long stud in the fender. I used an air ratchet to put it on.

If you don't mind: 1/4 mini air?.... Sir?

Actually it was 3/8. I used a butterfly air ratchet with very long extensions and I accessed it with the passenger door opened.
