Neutral safety switch install

I have a 1978 F150 supercab trailer special with a 460 C6. I have replaced a neutral safety switch several times only to have them all fail. I am not new to this game so I was wondering if anyone had any directions or ideas what could be going wrong. I have seen two different sets of directions on installing these switches. Typically I set it up bike with the truck in neutral using the number 43 drill bit. It works for short time and then stops working.
