66 trailerarm arm / bag question

i have firestone bags with 3/8 " diameter mounts - the original bolt hole in traileringarm is for a 1/2" bolt. a 4" long 3/8" diameter bolt in the trailering arm 1/2"+ hole is a little sloppy .... is this right ? should i correct this somehow?

thanks
paul

It is just used to secure the bag in place as there's not torsional forces applied. The 3/8" bolt will do just fine.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
