Isolate the new aluminum from the old with plastic spacers since 6013 isn't as corrsion resistant. You'll need to etch, barrier coat and paint as usual.

Plastic spacers would be superior.

Albert,

My I suggest putting shrink wrap tubing on the bolts that will give U added protection & isolation

 You'll have bad times, but they'll just wake you up to the good times you weren't paying attention to

Some people try to turn back their odometers.Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way.I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

I’ve haven’t ever tried either product U’ve mentioned but with shrink wrap the bolt come out consistent in size like I used 3/8" bolts with shrink wrap shrunk down with heat gun over the shank of bolt than I believe used a 27/64" drill bit but drill size may depend on thickness of shrink wrap wall thickness. AnyWho it worked out for me Anxious
