What hardware do I need to mount to a 2 x 4 on a covered screen porch?

Me personally I would not mount a swing to anything less then a 4 x 4 post. mounting it to a 2 x 4 drilling a hole all the way through will weekend the structural value of the 2 x 4.

What size si the inside diameter of the mounting holes? 3/8" ?

Hi Joseph,1/2"Thanks,Jungle Gym Kingdom

Two questions: 1. how do i ascertain if i can screw these into my ceiling joists? and 2. where is the ebook installation guide?

1. Yes, since your ceiling joists are at least 2x8s. I recently used 1/2"x4-1/2" lag screws to attach four of them to a 16 ft. beam I made out of three 2x8s glued and bolted together - spans two trees. A 1/2" dia. lag is the biggest that will fit the holes. 2. I don't think you need any installation guide. Just measure, drill, and screw in the lags you choose. My beam is 12-1/2 ft. off the ground, so I put the hanger centers 30 in. apart. That ensures the swing(s) don't wobble or swivel - my granddaughter hates that. Your height may be different, but the hangers need to be farther apart than the width of the swing. These are GREAT hangers - VERY heavy duty and could hold a small elephant. They allow a swing to keep going with minimal effort - no friction. Perfect choice.

Can I use 3/8" x 8 in carriage bolts to hang this on a 4x6 for a wood playground? Is there something better?

The swing hangers do not come with hardware because the choices are so varied for the cusomer. They even say that in a letter included in the package. If you are comfortable suspending whatever swing you are going to use then carriage bolts will work. I used tempered steel bolts and heavy washers only because I know this application will be there a long time and the harware will last and not strip the wood. When I first hung the swings from our frames I used carriage bolts but I didn't care for the way the bolts seemed to loosen just a little. A hex bolt has been better for my piece of mind. I am VERY impressed by the swing hangers. They are quite heavy and make me feel quite comfortable about ordering more.
