8mm allen wrench was too small. This is for a 400ex and I believe it is in between a 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch but in metric. Any info?

Thanks, Drew.

Sorry about that guys, it was my friend who was trying to get his ac propegs on and i don't know why he said the 8mm didn't work. We finally got them off and put the propegs on. Has anyone had problems w/ all the bolts and holes not lining up?

my bolts on my ac propegs lined up perfectly. I was very surprised. i had heard many stories about them not lining up at all. But they did.

A good solution for those bolts (and many others) is to get a set of sockets with the allen heads on them - it makes it much easier to get torque on the bolts when you're using a socket wrench as opposed to those little allen wrenches.

I have heard a lot of stories about AC products not lining up properly. Bolth my bumper and nerfs bolted right on, no problem!:p
