I am in the process of installing the loader mod from johnstractor page on my IHT 284. I have found that the dealer in Mass. has an employee that cross threaded the two 14mm 2.0 blts that screw into the ROPS/ fender mount plateon the right side during assembly. Bolts needed to be run through a die to clean up the threads and I need to retap the plate threads after I reposition the plate so the bolts line up correctly. Anyone have this problem with cross threaded fasteners in the factory assembly portion?
