    Axle Adapter Bracket Bolts

    Hi,

    I am struggling with the bolts for the Axle Adapter Brackets. I'm using coil-overs, and the bolt to attached the lower coil-over assembly, the bracket and the shims is a 4" Larson Tuff Torq bolt, which is impossibly tight to push through the Axle Adapter Bracket. I can probably hammer it through, but it seems wrong to do so, and I am reluctant to drill out the bolt holes. Am I doing something wrong?

    Thanks,

    Jonathan

    Answering my own question....I took a leap of faith and drilled out the bolt holes on the adapter bracket. What seemed like a big job took less than 5 seconds, so now I'm re-assembling my axle after worrying about nothing all week.

    Cheers!
