| The aft end of the rails have a mount that is riveted to the rail. Drill out the rivets and remove the aft mount. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The front mounts are angled. Some, like Dave West (see link on "Tech Tips From Other Folks" page), have fabricated a bracket to match this angle. The problem I saw with this is that it would set me up too high in the seat. I still wanted to see through the windshield, not over it. My solution was to place the front mount in a vice and straighten it out. When this was done, it was still strong and did not require any reinforcement. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
