I am thinking of modifying the plates...Bore out the threads and put a grade 8 nut on both sides...A bolt runnug the way it does...The key I believe will be to have a nut on the inside of the plate that is the same as the overall distance between the plate...I will let you know how it works...I am going to try it in the morning when the parts stores open...If it works I will list all of the parts with part numbers and where I found them...Thanks to all of those who contributed to this cluster fuk
