are yours 2 or 4 bolt, because if they're 2 bolt doing what you did kills the safety of having the bolts inserted from the top, if a nut comes off, say good bye if your bolts are in upside down.

no way would i drive my car with them in the opposite way, but i'm a "do it right" kind of guy.

not trying to slam you, but it must be said that what you did isn't the safest way to go about things



i have the 4 bolt

i wanted to do it the right way, but totally forgot to do it before i dropped in the engine and trans. i jsut grabbed a bolt off my spare atx subframe and cut what was left of the bolt and inserted the new one upside down
