ECV 2010 M1165a1 Ser# 249865. Sheppard M83 mounting bolts and Pitman retainer bolt..

After looking for hours online and this forum I have come up completely empty handed. I found the description. 5/8-24x5.0" bolt I need (3) to attach a Sheppard M83 Steering box onto my M1165a1 frame...The NSN of the Bolt is 5305-00-726-2567 but I am coming up short. I have looked and Now I am getting really worried I'll never find these bolts!! I looked at the following sites...Mac Motors No luck. Those Military guys No luck. Seco no luck. Eastern Surplus No luck. Genuine Humvee parts No luck! This is getting Old.. Does anyone have (3) ECV sheppard box frame bolts and the Pitman arm retainer for sale? Thank you... Dave

Seems like an easy bolt to find, you don't have a fastener business in Henderson? get grade 8 that is all you are going to get with the NSN number.
A simple web search came up that HPG has 62 in stock if you are determined to get "real" bolts.

Now it makes sense.. The TM is Wrong. It lists the Bolt as a "5/8-24 x 5.0 " The bolt description is a 5/8-18x5.0 There is not a 5/8-24 bolt available. Its not made. I figured it was a misprint or sheppard making a proprietary bolt..

Sorry, I missed that 5/8-11 is UNC and 5/8-18 is UNF

A quick call to any distributor would have netted you results…
