    The bolts that hold mine to the springer base are 7/16-20. Be sure you attach them to the cab as well as the seat using the short belts with mounting tabs on both ends.

    IP leaking on my m35a2

    Mine leaked intermittently, I thought it was the fuel supply hose from the primary filter but it was the brass 45 deg fitting that wasn't tight in the IP. Just start by checking all fittings and hoses, degrease and watch it.

    Master cylinder kit
