Fred,
...just been going over the mountain of good advice I`ve been
given throughout 2006 and came across this treasure. When I read this, I
began to suffer the pain of Flat Forehead from slapping it daily till the
job was done.
If I didn`t thank you then, I do now!
Cheers
Ferg Kyle

| Ferg, just why y'all tryin' to use the proper length AN bolts as a
| freakin' installation tool? ;-) Just go to the hardware store and buy
| a long length of 5/16" threaded rod, and 5/16 nuts. Cut said rod into
| pieces longer than the AN bolts. Affix engine and snug the nuts,
| compressing the rubber bushings. Thence, one-by-one, remove your
| threaded rod thingies and sub an AN bolt.
|
| Might this work for you too?
|
| In any event, Happy New Year!
