If you have trouble with u - bolts let me know , It wouldn't take me long and they can hitch a ride with your other stuff

You are correct Steve, I am planning on a plate, but I don't have anything to make them out of. I'll take you up on the u-bolts, just let me know if you need extra $$.

Thanx buddy, Big John

2-56 or 4-40 all thread or threaded pushrods can be bent to shape. I've used Sullivan threaded steel rods to make some u-bolts for a 1/8 scale boat trailer. I used the assorted double end threaded rod, cut and rethreaded as necessary prior to bending.

Thanx for the site, but I think Steve and I are working something out.
