Anyone out there install one of these?
It came with 3/8 bolts for the rear cross member connection, but instructions include a note saying that come cars may required 10mm bolts.
Well, on my 84, the 3/8 bolts don't fit in the existing frame holes. And even if they did, these holes are not tapped, and there is no way to get nuts on the other end of the bolts, since this area is 'boxed' in. And, the bolts supplied weren't the 'self-tapping' kind either.
What is the suggested way to install this thing? I thinking that its going to be hard to find self tapping 10mm bolts at home depot, and even if they have them, that isn't going to support the kind of torque you'd want to have on a frame component.
Thoughts?
