anti dive kit problems

[dssean]

i was fitting myanti dive to my mk1 today, it seems to have different bolt sizes where it bolts to the old brackets that go onto the chasis rails. Also the bolts i had in my old brackets are notlong enough ( the guy at rally designs said to use the old bolts through the new bar?) do i

1) buy longer bolts?( then i would have different bolts holding the anti roll bar on ,on the two outside brackets )

2) use the existing ,and then nut and bolt the bracket to the main bar ( looks a bit fiddly)

3) drill out and re tap the existing captive nut in the original chasis bracket so all bolts are the same size (just 4 will be longer)

sorry for all the questions ,it just that today was a going backwards day.so goingon the beer now..

The way i did mine was to drill out the captive nuts on the chassis brackets, then used new longer bolts with nylocs & washers for those, and got new shorter bolts/nuts for the other brackets-although i thought these came with the kit?

thanks mate,

that seems to be the most sensible way thinking about it. then all bolts are the same size.
