Quoted from DennisDodel:Twist nails hammered into the wood. I use a very thin, stiff putty knife under the plate to gently raise the nails to the point where you can grab the nails with a Vice-Grip and twist them out.

Frank, if you can get the plate off under the coin thing it may expose
enough of the broken drive screw to allow you to get a hold of it.
The drive screws I used were from Fastenal; part # 32226
If you google "32226 drive screw" you will find them.
I sent a pic of my lock down bar, not complete, but the
"32226" drive screws are used!

Nick, I don't know how those nail risers are mounted.
I don't think I have ever seen one, installed or not

So the risers would be nailed in with a drive screw type thing?
Is this something that is done?
I don't even know how big they are.
Coos would probably send you a pic of the UN mounted
risers next to a tape measure for comparison.

The metal foot rail plate is from Coos.
The holes were drilled just a bit larger.
The foot rail was new, so the holes drilled were
the proper size

I used weather stripping, really for the
sole purpose of stopping the nickles from
getting under the lock down
