He TRIED to fail, but it didn't work out. :) Great guy - the hobby needs all the great guys it can get.

In response to this thread (and after finding some stashed), George PMed me and bolts are in route!

Yeah - the guy at Barstow says they cut all their bolts when taking stuff apart and I should just go to the hardware store................

Antelope Valley has them for 10.25 each.......... Cheaper than the guy in Kansas, but not by much. They're out there - and I'll find them. Even if I have to buy a whole complete setup and part it out....................................

The bolts are out there - SECO has 1202 of the short ones, new, but want over 8 dollars each. Like Jim said, a lot of people are looking, so I'm not ready to rig anything when I can use the correct bolt. If I had to, I would pay the big bucks to use the right stuff. Bushings and a regular...

Called him - all sold out.

The are a special shouldered bolt. Not availible at NAPA or just about anywhere else. Even the Fastenal guy gave up. Jim has me on the right track now, I'm sure I'll come up with them in a few days.

Jim - Thanks! They have one side in stock. The salesman doesn't understand why they don't have the other side showing in his system so he is going to check with the shop in the morning and see what they are using in the trucks they rebuild. So after a few hundred phone calls I'm almost...

Well I found a used set for 144 dollars. My gawd, are they worth that?

Well you could TRY, but you will discover they DON'T have any - just like I did. STILL looking...............

We did a three carrier op with her on my last Nimitz cruise. Got some greats pics on my other computer. Grand old lady she was...................

Of course the phone number from the 3 year old thread is now a fax number. I'll try faxing in a request to see if they are still in business. I also faxed everything I have to my local Fastenal dealer and my supply buddy is looking into it as well. If I find an easy way to buy them I'll be...

I searched "Shouldered winch bolt". I also have a 9 minute attention span. Thank you for your assistance.

I have SEARCHED, I have printed the pages out of the -34P and I ran the NSN and part number through google. I have the characteristics data for the bolts (left and right) but I haven't found a place to buy them! If someone has purchased these lately, can you tell me where and maybe what part...

Finally got a little time in my schedule to install the winch I picked up last month from Jim. Well, it's MOST of a winch, it still needs a shaft, levers and a PTO, but it's a good start. My son and his friend were there to do most of the work. Nothing earth shattering about getting it on -...

Legally? I seem to remeber a thread about this........................

In CA double trailer towing IS legal. 1st trailer must be a gooseneck setup. My thoughts are - if you have to have some sort of illegal, unsafe, rigged recovery system - you can't affoard the hobby. My gawd - what's holding that blazer on the back of that trailer? Hope? Prayers? And you had...

I am ready to start installing my winch. JUST the winch right now, no PTO, no shaft - frame extentions and the winch. One piece at a time, just like Johnny Cash. I have most of the bolts figured out, Jim gave me some great advice, but I would like to have the TM right there. Which TM (and yes...

Sorry to hear about your run of bad luck. Sometimes it's just better to truck them home.

I can't wait for this truck to sell and be gone. Maybe we can merge all 11 threads on it. Should go for big bucks cuz everyone has the link. :)
