2. Is there only one pre-drilled hole on the lower side...haven't gotton under to check for myself yet. rye: if you drilled new holes, what size bit did you use?

Thanks again and "never forget"

I used both 1/2" and 7/8" 3M tape (a 15' roll and 5' roll, respectively). Probably used about 1/2 a roll of each? If you just have the 1/2" roll, just use two strips on the top surface.

IIRC, There are 3 holes on the bottom side of the splitter. Only one hole closest to the wheel actually lines up directly with a screw. One other requires drilling, one other requires some super long screw. (I MIGHT BE WRONG) Mine wasn't going anywhere after a full perimeter of tape.
