The plan is to add spacers and 2 1/2″ screws so the lock will fit correctly.

When I was trying to install the spacer I broke my wrench.  Of course this was the only socket that fit and I have an incomplete socket set.  What bad luck.  I learned some more important lessons today:  1) Drills can catch when drilling steel.  I have a busted finger to prove it.  2) A vise would be nice to have because pliers can slip off the steel and get caught in your shirt and bruise and cut your boobs.
