So when i was upgrading my shock-mount plates to skidderz I noticed one leaf pack bolt had been sheared off completely. So I went to Home Depot's and picked up a 3/16 "x 4" stainless grade 8 bolt w allen key receiver head. This way we dont have to rip it up w a vise grip and we can properly tighten the pack. Also got a flange nut for the bottoms. Only problem was aligning the leaves without takin the pack apart. Bent a couple good screwdrivers but in the end made it work w a punch set I picked up at harbor frieght.

Nice, that should hold up pretty well if not a little better than the regular center pins. Any fitment problems with the head of the bolt going into the axle or is it pretty much the same size?
