[QUOTE="NuclearPower, post: 11537249, member: 126560"] Tried mounting from the front hole and it will not work. There is not enough slack in the ground wire to rotate it enough to fit under the bracket. The wire needs to rotate about 90 degrees to the drivers side to allow the bracket to lay on the flat portion of the crimp, otherwise it cocks the bracket at a slight angle and doesn't tighten the ground very well. I had to use washers to lift the bracket high enough to clear the crimp. Talked with Van and he suggested looking for another ground location, but there was not another spot that the original wire could reach. That left me with either what Beast recommended (making wire longer) or another Van suggestion of undoing the wire loom to see how much more slack I could get. Neither of which I am crazy about doing on a 2012 with a 100k warranty. Therefore I used 4 washers under that bracket to lift it above the crimp, the gold bolt that came in the Bob's kit was still long enough, but it doesn't have that nice finish to it... [ATTACH=full]290377[/ATTACH] It is stable, not as stable as planned, but...any others out there with a 2011+??? Any other suggestion Steve (Bob's)???:??::??::shrug: [/QUOTE]
