Do what I did, get at least one hole to line up and use a couplelock washer and tighten it down good without fkn the thread up : ) Mine works great the lock washer keeps the bracket from spinning, I've had mine that way for 2 months and so far so goodand I always floor it so if it would have slipped I would have had that problem allready: ) My TB spacer ishome made and thats one of the challenges I came accross but it works and showed no signs of slippage, just make surebefore you tighten it down to floor it and look where the bracket mounts up under W.O.T and thats the only thing u need to worry about.

Tomarrow I can take a pic in the day light and show you which hole I lined up for the bracket, i think it was the top hole and I used the stock bolt and like 1 or 2 lock washers. 1 bolt is all you need to line up and tighten it without stripping the threads but make sure its tight. Have somebody floor it for youand then you can adjust the bracket from under the hood.

Good luck!
