In lining everything up for next weekend, With the RE 4.5 junk I've bought, I've found that the stock UCA bolts in the rear, don't fit as well as I thought they would. They have a little play back and forth.

I bought some grade 8 from a local company, and they too are a little on the playful side...so...

1.) are they useable like that ? worries me some,
2.) if not, WHAT 'XACTLY do i go and get ?

Thanks for all the help once again gentlemen.
 
the stock UCA frame side bolts worked well with my RE SF joints in my arms...

do they still wiggle a lot when you tighten them down?


what is with the tech rabbi?

haven't done it yet...next saturday..

I have some grade 8 that I'd rather use that were a little loose (not much), and I thought it odd...until i took the factory rear bolts out and wa-laa !...same thing.


I want to do it once....and once only. :D
 
Aren't you doing DBs as well? Don't worry about the stock size ones then since you're going to drill a 1/2" hole there anyway.

Rabbi do you have access to metric bolts (i think the are 10.?) they are equivalent to grade 8's and you might find a better fit...

I can't remember exactly there 8.8 which are basically a grade 5 and then a 10.something that is the same as a grade 8. I had to pick one up at the John Deere stealership for my RE trackbar.
