Just a thought but if those bolts you are using are the annodised aluminium type, I was advised not to use them on Vector/Crosslinks as they might not be strong enough. The originals being made of steel and taking into account the huge forces front forks go through. If one can snap due to cross threading it, how long would it last when taking a battering on the trails? Just a thought as it could hurt quite alot....
Cheers
