Also, don't put a temporary bolt or stud and nut in the rear hole. Remember, you have to take it out again and there isn't much room to work. I had to spend too much time on the grinder on a 9/16 box wrench to recover from that mistake when I assembled the whole thing on the floor and forgot to take that rear bolt out.
