Has anyone had issues getting the bolts to thread properly when installing Kaon Recovery points? I’ve tried for an hour to get them to line up and can avoid what feels like a cross thread… I can get the bolts to go in without the recovery point but no luck with… just wondering if anyone else has had a similar issue?
 
The center distance between the bolt holes should be 54mm (2.126")

Any pictures?

For anyone that has similar issues - Kaon had me grind all the powder coat out of the holes and some metal to get one of the recovery points to fit… which worked - but I had to have a dremel with the round sand wheels to get it done… tons of powder coat removed. I also had to remove some additional metal inside the holes to get it to finally thread without binding.

Seems like they could make the holes the same size as the OEM holes on the tow points to solve all this type of issue and preserve the rust protection provided by the powder coat. Or they could make the holes slightly bigger to account for the powder coat, vs an extra couple hours on the install…
