Think you can get this kind of info at any other site?
I do this too! Like Lew, I use 2 as well, and I do one more thing: I take a die grinder and cut a notch in the end of the bolt so I can use a flathead screwdriver to install and remove them. I have a pair for cubs and a bigger pair for the lo-boy. as much of a pain cub wheels can be, the lo-boy ones are 10 times more!
