Do the lower bolts need a shim in between the mount? I swapped one the other day and it did the same thing. I had an extra that the windings in the case came apart so I just robbed the end off it.

Hello, and when you get it fixed, don't tighten those end bolts to tight. The adjustment bolt will hold the belt tight. Mike

You want the bolts tight. They will work themselves out and cause the problem Feoe.RL has.

+1 ive seen many s/g missing a bolt from not being tightened.

Im guessing this is where locktight comes in handy?

Nope just a lock washer. 👀

Well like the man said "it ain't pretty but it should hold" $30 fix hopefully he's right.

Good fix! :ThumbsUp: This isn't a beauty contest but I have seen a lot more worse with low weld penetration hanging like bird poop!

You got a good point there OldSkull. This guy was very highly recommended so im sure it couldn't have been done any better. I will keep ya'll updated on the k301 rebuild. I will be posting up many more pictures on my profile.
