Avid Fiberglass Floats

[lv2plyguitar 172]

I am in the process of rigging my avid floats. They are the original ones that came with the kit. I am stumped though with part of the instructions. The plans call for a bolt and washer where the cross tubes are inserted into the float. I am not sure what kind of bolt or washer. There is no threads or holes in that area at all. See the attached pictures. In one picture I am pointing to the place the bolt and washer is supposed to go. I marked it with a black mark. The other picture is a photo of the only directions for that.

Thanks

I'm guessing that these floats have neve been rigged. Seems to me that you will need to drill down thru the float into the spreader bars then bolt the float to the spreader bars using a nut inside the tube (assuming there is no access inside the float or below the spreader bars). I've never seen the Avid oem float install instructions, if you can please post a copy in the Technical Forum..
