Any suggestions would to get this buttoned up today.
We are here and working... Just a long line of people to call back and email. If you left a voicemail and or a message we will return your call in the order in which it was received!

The plain steel nuts are just for mock-up and will not be used for final assembly. We use a 1 1/16 wrench to tighten them up.

You may want to mock it up with the plain steel nuts, as it might be necessary to trim some of the u-bolt so you have enough room to use the box end of the wrench and slide it out afterwards.

We modified one a little to work more easily. Took a grinder to the open end so it fit in better and gave us more range of motion.
