Is there a Rig fix so i until I can find this bolt I can test out my car tractor supply and home depot don't have it I've heard of a quick fix I just havent found it.

I have been killing my hands doing the same thing today. I have read every thread on here and it appears that the consensus is 5/8 11. I bought two 5/8 11 bolts today (2") and cut them down to 3/4". Smoothed out the edges and then used a thread file to finish them off. A nut goes right on the bolts. I got the one in on the passenger side but it will only go in about 1/2 way then stops. I have been trying on and off all day to get the driver's side in and it WILL NOT START!!!!!!!! I agree it seems to be too big. Just for Sh..s and giggles I am going to get a 9/16 tomorrow and see what it feels like. Somebody on here must have been successful at this and can provide the master knowledge that we all so desire.

you need to run a tap through to clean all the crap out of the threads

yeah I dont have a tap I found a metric one in my box without one im stuck I wd40d it and everything. I finally found the right size plug too.

update: making my own tap with my new cut off wheel and a 5/8 bolt FTW! hopefully that works out
