That sucks, I remember when I owned an original BK it would grab a ball that was an inch down the outlane and hauling ass, and pull it right back up...
How can they mess up on a tried and true system

Its not that hard, you dont need a template (although I use one)..use a forschner bit on both sides of the cab...drill 1/2" - 5/8" deep on the outside and 1/8" deep on the inside with the forschner bit, the complete the hole with a butterfly bit...the holes are 2" apart
I will have to go out to my shop to confirm bit sizes but I think its 1 1/8" and 5/8"
Disregard the 3/16"...thats for a wpc siderail hole

Quoted from mof:

@cosmokramer: How do you ensure you are hitting the hole in the same exact spot from both sides (without) a template?

Measure and mark location. Pre-drill all the way through with a very small drillbit. Use that small hole to position forscner bit on both sides

Edit: beat me by a few seconds...
