Bummer. Were your original nuts/bolts too far gone to be reused? If not, I'd reuse them. They're probably stronger than what you got from lmc.

Most original bolts are so rusted then they are on the verge of breaking when you take them apart.

Bummer you had problems, but like usual it's par for the course.

I used to run to local hardware to get bolts, reach in and grab the number I needed and walk away. Get home to find out someone put a fine thread in coarse thread area. DOH!! Now I always confirm each one! Sounds like someone did the same thing with your parts.

Opps, my bad, it wasn't LMC - it was Blue Oval. My sincerest apologies to LMC. And not to call Blue Oval. Why was there a blue oval stick on the outside of the box?????
