Anyone had the bolts for the convertible frame break behind the windows? I've got two broke and not sure what the best fix is. I can't find these parts anywhere. Only thing I know to do is drill it out and tap it for a slighly bigger bolt. Any ideas?

 

If its the same one as I had go on mine I went to home depot and selected somethign which was similar...if I recall it was slightly longer and I just used a couple of washers as spacers, its not called a carage bolt but it looks similar but has a nylon sleve on it to allow it to pivot on the bolt.

It took a bit of searching but it worked out jsut fine for me. If you still have problems let me know and I will snap a quick photo to help out.

check this out, they are called "SHOLDER BOLTS" we use them alot in aircraft machine tools http://www.fastenal.com/web/products.ex?N=999602314 you will have to measure the original to size it and these are grade 8 steel

 

Awesome! Ya'll rock. Thanks a bunch. That should take care of it

 

no problem glad to help,

 

Work for boeing huh? I use them here often enough.
