1. You will need a 5/16-18 tread tap. The one pictured is the first one I found and it was a bottom tap and I had to go back to the bag and find one with the starting taper.

2. After freeing up the wire bundle to allow enough slack to lift the head off, removing the two 5/16 bolts the drive head lifted right off. I removed one propane tank and the drivers side equalizer saddle to get at the wiring bundle.

3. I then turned lead screw in the post 90 degree so I would be ready to line up at the new position.

4. I pushed some paper towel pieces down below where the two existing fore and aft holes needed to be tapped with 5/16-18 threads.

5. I vacuumed out the tapping debris and remove the paper towel pieces.

6. Reinstalled the head and two 5/16 bolts

As shown in the attached pictures I gain 3 1/2" which is going to be great. Chris
Glad it worked out for you.
