long nose fender hardware question
 
I wanted to put the bolts in the flange holes (the flange that holds the fender to the tub) to keep POR15 out of the threads but noticed that I can only thread them in about 4 turns.

Do the female threads taper? In other words, do they get tighter? I'm almost certain I'm using the original bolts.

TIA,
Chad

can you clean the holes? I didn't taper either.

Hmm, ok. I guess the bolts I was using were cross threading because they are a different pitch.

I have a new fender hardware kit somewhere. I'll use them.

THanks guys!
