I didn't get a new bolt and let me tell you about the new lucky evo deck... The old razor bolts that hold the spring are to short for the new deck. I had to go to home depot and buy a 3" new bolt which is a pain in the butt to put in
No it doesn't get crooked.......... The brake has the bolt running thru it on both sides into the frame of the deck with the spring giving constant tension.. The only way it can pivot is front and back as normal
