Lousy pic but it appears to lone up…. Might grind off the molded bolts and put something else in

I don't know, I think that third bolt on the right needs to be tightened a little more...

[Biggu]

Well , as I sat here and looked at the rear spring pack, and looked and looked again, the decision was made to grind off the molded carriage bolts and ad something that looked a little more defined. So I added some brass rod and will trim to fit when assembled. I think it looks better and definitely will under some paint.
