Hey Team,
I'm putting in my new Koyo radiator and after having had one hell of a time with the forward facing bolt on the PS of the radiator I'm thinking I'll grind it down so it's about 5 mm shorter than it was. I had a terrible time getting a socket on it because of its location. My deep socket could not get on it, and my shallower sockets were too shallow due to the length of the threads - the socket would not get seated.
Any reason why I shouldn't shorten the bolt a bit prior to install?
Thanks
Russell
