Freebird Posted June 18, 2011 Share #3 Posted June 18, 2011 You can also check the classifieds under Member Vendors and Rick Butler. I think he still has them listed there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEER30 Posted June 19, 2011 Share #4 Posted June 19, 2011 I just switched out the OEM bolts with hex headed bolts. Drilled a hole in head of them and placed split rings like they use for key rings. BEER30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEER30 Posted June 19, 2011 Share #6 Posted June 19, 2011 How much trouble was it finding split rings to fit them metric bolts?? LOL!!!! That's a good one! Split rings more than likely made in China, so assuming that they are metric already. BEER30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEER30 What was I thinkin', I should have figured. But I still couldn't do the mod. I've only got American number and letter and fraction drills, no metric ones.

Than should take care of it. BEER30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
