After conversion from mono to trike i fitted another Matco in parallel to 
original
with longer bolts and appropriate spacers and a alloy angle fitted outboard
of the second Matco to the tunnel behind Matcos to prevent twisting when 
applying
brake pressure. Worked perfectly for 4 years. Access for bleeding from cockpit.
