Traction Master Bars - '65 Install

[chemeng]

Anyone know where I can find a set of installation instructions for these? I bought a new set cheap, so cheap they didn't include the install instructions. They look pretty simple to install, do I grind down the center leaf spring bolt so it fits flush on the leaf spring plate? Would it be better to drill a hole in the center of the Traction bar plate so the bolt fits inside? Front assembly lines up well with the frame rail, just need to weld in.

Anything I should watch closely during installation?

Thanks, Mike

I don't remember having to do that with mine, but now your going to force me to look again. I don't remember that bolt being thicher than the shock plate. I think I'd drill the plate befor grinding the bolt though.

Yeah, the bolt sticks through the shock plate a good half inch. Drilling the traction mount sounds better than grinding that bolt. I'll throw it in the drill press and paint before I install.
Thanks, Mike
