#2 and #3. The "reinforcements" and bolts.
1. Do I need the reinforements? as I dont have them now.
2. The bolts, are they something I can get at the hardware store?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
James
The reinforcemnets are basically the washers for the bolts ..but ther are made for 2 bolts at once and distribute the clamping force .
You could probably round up the bolts at a hardware store if you know the thread pitch ...they are also allen head bolts .
Really you should be able to gett all mounting hardware you need from your local dealer for relatively cheap , or even used off the forums .

And yes, I would run those washer things.
Also, make sure to locktite and torque those axle bolts.
