Also, in response to Marek: the pulling load appears to be handled by the track. The bolts prevent the boom vang fitting from moving back and forth. Also, I plan to use the same length bolts, if possible. If I need to go slightly longer for the RivNut, so be it. Thanks.

Also, be careful how long the bolts you use. You don't want the bolts sticking inside the boom (if you have any lines going there). Just a few cents Marek 1994 #122 "Legato" Ottawa, ON
