graemevw 823 Posted August 22, 2017 Has anyone got a pair of these screws? They hold the front arms to the chassis bracket. The 22mm ones are the longer ones that also go through the shock tower. All the frog/brat ones are 3x20. If not, any ideas what else they are used in? I cant find any. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Granddad Stinky 975 Posted August 22, 2017 Do you mean the ones that hold shocks on or suspension arm pivots? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can you use M3 screws/bolts and those little brass ferrules? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
graemevw 823 Posted August 23, 2017 Yeah, if I have to. Better than spending £12 on a bag of screws (guessing new price if i ever found any). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

graemevw 823 Posted August 23, 2017 I mean the suspension pivot ones. BA11 in the 2016 blackfoot manual. I am in the uk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could turn down some M5 stainless Allen bolts and thread the end. 😁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My lathe is 115 years old though and im still using hand ground cobalt steel tooling. Im not sure I can get a finish good enough to not accelerate wear in the arms. I will be able to sort something, id much rather have the right screws though. I cant believe they arent reasonably easily available! Ill make new arms with better attachment points if I have to!!!
