Jason, yes, that is what I meant. To me it looks like a metric bolt with a larger than normal shoulder on it to engage the slot on the box. I have an extra box and column sitting around, I'll see if I can find a quick alternative.
After driving it around the block some I like it. Definitely feels more connected, but if you have some slop in the steering somewhere it will make it sound worse. I noticed my grant steering wheel adapter clicks back and forth on the splines. I tightened the big nut that holds the wheel on about a month ago and it held for a few hours. It is just enough to be annoying.
Gene, I think the reason Jason says you have to ditch the cover is due to the long double nutted bolts. If you use shorter bolts, with single nuts tack welded on you should be good. Or you could find replacement rivets!
