And then it's still tight enough where it'll hold the coil in place without that long thin machine screw, which is good because after the bolts are in place you can't get the machine screw into its slot.
When the truck came to me it was only mounted with one bolt in the bracket and the other hole was left blank because there was no possible way to put the bolt through the ear and the side cover. And you couldn't just put a bolt in the side cover because then the mounting bracket wouldn't lie flat against the cover.
