Dang glad I stumbled across this posting. The bolt mods sure look sweet. Keep up the good work so that I may order some myself.

Also, does anyone happen to know the bolt size/dimensions that hold on the head plaques? Trying to mount a bracket there but need the bolts to do it

I don't know the size but Hillco does. That's one of the things that were measured. They are going to have 2 kits. 1 with two bolts for head plates like mine that only have 2 holes and another kit with 4 bolts for plates from MBA.

Don't know if it's the same as yours. The ones they sent me like in the picture for my head plate are Chrome 3/8-16x1/2. Part Number CH380C050S. Hope this helps.

Seems to me they would have put this together alittle faster. With all the interest in it they are gonna make money off of it if the pricing isn't outragous(sp?). I know they have thier bulk sales to but how long does it take to put this together. When did this thread start? A month ago atleast.

I was hoping to have them before fathers day weekend but doesn't look like that is gonna happen.

Not trying to knock them, but you would think with over 3200 views of this thread alone, they could be making some serious money if they got this kit out there sooner.

I wouldnt think that these kits would be too expensive, they are just nuts, bolts and washers, how expensive can they be?

Supply and demand can make them more expensive than you would think...

exactly

depends on the vendor and if they want to take advantage of the demand, we'll see I suppose.
