Rotax 912 ring mount bolt trouble
I´m replacing the old bed style mount with a newer ring type. Installation instruction (r912s-ring-4.pdf) says, there should be used AN7-41A bolts and 1/2" x 0.058" distance tube with the Lord shock absorber. However this 1/2" x 0.058 tube is to small for an an7 bolt. Is there a mistake? Shouldn´t it be an AN6 bolt? Should I drill the cup washers to 7/16" inch too, as the AN7 won´t fit, only AN6... Am I missing something?

Peter,
Did your parts come from Zenith? I had some issues with my parts from them. The AN7 bolt should have a shank diameter of 7/16” and should fit inside the 1/2” (8/16”) spacer. Mine did fit, but the hole diameters in the cupped washers were too small for the AN7 bolts so I called Zenith, and they sent me replacements.
