I might have an extra one that will work till you can order a new one. I'll take a look around.

[kaneboats]

Oh wait, that's the OBV. I was going to match up on mine (LSV), but I think yours are different. Can you tell me the length and thread size? I think I have two different ones left over from an old aftermarket tower. I will still look around.

Did you try the dealer?

[viking]

Fastenal has just about every size and kind of bolt/screw you can find. You might try them?

I ordered some from mcmaster-carr. shipping was very quick, prices were good, and there selection is amazing.

[outbackv]

let me know if you have any laying around my tower kane i believe is identical to yoursill get the size when i get home......is mcmaster a website as well as fastenal?

[outbackv]

mcmaster is a website i just checked they have some that will work wont be home for awhile if a one knows the size and length i need let me know so i can order them thanks guys

[kaneboats]

I'm so sorry. I went through all 3 boxes of the old boat parts I have around. What I did when I sold the O/B is I gave the guy a whole box of stuff he might need. I'm sure now I let all those extra parts go. Age is affecting the memory I guess.

[outbackv]

It's alright thanks for checking though greatly appreciated! This site is great, has helped me answer and solve so many things!! I tried calling the dealer and got the run around if any one has ever oredered these screws and know the length and width of them let me know I can order them at mcmaster.com just need the dimensions
thanks again guys!!

[kaneboats]

Allright, who has the OBV and can give the specs on this one? Thanks!

[outbackv]

alright guys i couldnt find anyone with that new the thread width and length so i went mcmaster.com and ordered 2 different sixes i hope they work cause it wouldnt only let me order one so i have lots of the same screws coming hopefully they work if they do and anyone needs any let me know cause ill have 2 boxes with i believe 50 each in them
i ordered 1 1/2" length by 1/4" in width and then 1 1/4" length and 5/16"

[outbackv]
