All
I missed the part about being in reference to IRS cars and had sol=
id axle cars on my mind. The bolts on the IRS cars might need to be differe=
nt lengths or thread.
Sorry about the mix up but I was a TR3 racer and not a IRS car racer.
I blame it on age=85.

Excellent information, Dean.
I appreciate your expert tips and suggestions.
I'll be looking into these fasteners for this application.
With due respect,

Summit has them in 3/8 =96 24 X1.00 with a head that is 12 point and takes =
a 7/16 socket. Also has a built in flange washer. With this you can use a 7=
/16 12 point socket. Summit number ARP-744-1000. Package of 5 $12.59
I also use a 3/8-24 nut that also takes a 7/16 12 point socket. Summit numb=
er ARP-300-8332. Package of
10 $13.59
A regular 3/8 =96 24 bolt takes a 9/16 socket.
Works for me

I can't recall exactly what I did there, but changing the standard hardware=
is a good place to start. The fatter the purchase on the shock side the b=
etter. I think I used a grade8 hard washer to grab as much of the shock as=
possible under the bolt head. I think an allen head bolt might provide a =
better purchase for tightening, or I ground down a 9/16" socket to better f=
it the bolt head. I think I used a longer bolts too. Adding another nut t=
o lock things is place. If I get a chance, I'll take a good look at what I=
did and get back to you. The frame mount can get worn out of round too, i=
f it's been loose a few times.
