I've searched and read, it seems the driver's side bolt is known for wallowing out the hole in the mount.
I'm there now, but I bought mine used, with a buggered up bolt. I found an exact replacement at my local hardware, no problem, or so I thought...
My question is this: How long is the shoulder of the stock, RE bolt?
The bolt that came with mine has a 2&1/4" long shoulder. That leaves 1/4" of actual 5/8" diameter sticking in the frame bracket, leaving another 1/2" in cut threads that in no way measure the 5/8" diameter.
As I expected the next size up in the hardware bins has an inch longer shoulder. Is there a 4 & 1/2" long x 5/8"-18 bolt for this kit?
TIA, Mike
