It's always something isn't it? Here's my issue right now. The bolts that go at 12 and 5 or 7 o'clock are okay even though they are 40mm long and not 50 like the spec says.....the threads on the nut are fully engaged.

The bolts that are at 3 and 9 I believe will be long enough even though they are 120mm and not 130 or 135 as the spec suggests they are/need to be.

The current issue is the bracket has ident/traps that need the head to be 16mm and not 17mm. I am thinking I'll just grind .015 or so off each flat and make em so......

My local hardware stores seem to only have M10 10.9 cap screws up to 100mm in length.

I thought about finding maybe something grade 8 SAE - but I figure I'll give this a shot first.

See? No fit!
