Cobra top hinge plate bolt failure

Did the bolt break or shear at the location where the thread ends and solid shank starts? ... I think I would get bolts long enough to have a solid shank all the way thru the structure causing the misaligned stress you decribe and only enough thread on the back side to hold the washer and nut. But, note that the load is not just in shear. These 4 bolts are taking the total force of the compressed gas springs in tension... Best Regards, Dave "YO electric"
