i haven't...but i think some people have gotten them at orchards or home depot before...

 

these things have to be pretty sturdy, considering they're going to be holding the x-brace and helping to absorb body-flex. I'd hate to inadvertently get some weak ones that tweak a bit and are a pain to get out... or worse yet, break off. moreover, I have to make sure that they fix snugly in the x-brace, because any wiggle room and the x-brace is next to useless. they aren't common bolts by any means, (going from memory) it looks like it takes a thick-ass hex key to torque them in. definitely not installed using common metric sockets.

I just might go look to see if I can find an exact match. sucks that I have to do that... but waiting 2+ months sucks pretty bad in and of itself.

would've been nice if Whiteline could've just counted the # of bolts in the package. sh*t happens, I know... but sh*t appears to have been happening for 2 months straight.

Muz, I've contacted my postal office and they do not have any packages pending for me.

Please forward the tracking # when you get it. Thx.

 

man that's hobo

 

Ok. Thanks. You have PM with tracking #. 3rd bolt shipped out last night. USPS won't get another chance at non-delivery.

 

Muz,

I have received the package you sent via DHL Express shipping. I appreciate it. coincidentally, I also finally received the package you sent via the USPS. I cannot imagine why the heck it took them so long to deliver this one... and at this point I have to assume that the other one was completely lost.

either way, it's all good now and can't wait to get my x-brace installed finally... probably tomorrow or the next day.

 

Glad it worked out ok for you. It cost me $36 to ship that replacement bolt.
