[QUOTE="alfaguy, post: 230307, member: 6911"] The allthread goes through both cross brackets. The top one is cut from 3x3x1/4 angle and the bottom is from 2x2x1/4. I used a double nut on the top to create a long bolt because I could not find an 8 inch bolt with long enough threads for the length of adjustment needed. I made a steel bracket to capture the nut under the bottom cross piece. It is rivetted in place. There are different ways to do this but I thought it was important to allow for misalignment in the assembly and the captured nut seems to work good as it can move about some. Dave A. [/QUOTE]
