It wasn't crazy funny but it was alright....

i'm not talking about how funny it looks, i'm talking about how asinine that is

i'd do it, probably woulda put a washer under the allen bolt head or used a standard hex head bolt

i wouldnt have used grade 8 in a single shear app, i woulda stuck with grade5


and lmfao at that last post about the oem's drilling holes and plug welding them to make the spot welds...i'm guessing he has no clue how a spot welder works

 

[Poopshinanigans]

that dude should have just welded it back in using the best welding equipment i know of: JB Weld.
I've provided a photo of its wonderous power.

BMW owners....German rednecks.

german rednecks are probably more of opel owners. with their many Opel GTs sitting in their yard, shanty house out back where they make their illegal beer, and their thought of the kaiser rising again.
