I have used blobs of grease then carefully wound the bolt through... Then realised there was knowone to holding tight so had to wedge a spanner or child in place until nipped up.... After that I spent an our under the carrier with a mig putting very small spot welds on the nuts underside.... Much more user friendly now... Why they didn't captivate the nuts is beyond me perhaps it was "jobs for the boys".......... "Sir we need more workers to get Hesse carriers completed on time"
