suggestion, use 4 bolts, and as big as possible to fill the hole. little extra to keep from moving. Have you tired your box against the plate they sometimes need a little rework to allow box to fit flat.

When we do it we will be using a c clamp to pull the plate closer to the frame and a center punch to keep the other two holes in line with the frame holes.
thanks for the advice.

Nice! Someone before you didn't have a clue, ehh?
Previous owner stuff can be a pain sometimes.
Got the new door seals in yesterday, will be a fun weekend.
wow I like the BBQ area what's on the grill tonight ? Am only 2hrs away from Lost Wages
I don't see how flipping the block will affect the ride, unless the U-bolts were loose, you didn't put the sway bar back on or adjusted the tire pressure.
He took the flat leaf out.
Turning the block over just put the rounded side against the spring, which is better for the spring.
This weekend project door seals.
Well, it was a long day, but I finally got the new brake master cylinder installed and bleed all four brakes.
Had a little problem with the driver's door. But got it all fixed up and working good now.
