Default Re: Bolting the Front Crossmember

Never having had an A before, just how much of a problem are bolt heads not flush with the frame rails? How much proud can the bolts be before you run into fitment problems? Aren't the hood shelves on a 29 elevated by the wood blocks beneath them?

You can probably get by with about .050" high head in the thickness of the webbing.
