[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 497537, member: 13975"] Drilled and tapped it last night with no issues. Strangely though, the flat and lock washer on the factory bolts would not come off. I had to knock them off by catching the washer edge in my vise which damaged the threads. They won't fit on the longer bolt I bought at the hardware store either. It's not a big deal; I can go get matching washers for a few cents but I feel kinda dumb for not knowing what I'm missing here. [/QUOTE]
