Bolts needed

Hi all ,
I need a couple of 3 quarter head UNF bolts to remove brake drum on 2391 . Has anyone got a couple they could lend/sell me or suggest good quick source to get some . Need to remove drum early next week if possible

Thanks

If you mean 1/2" UNF thread then I have some unused 3" long bolts that I have cut more thread onto to give greater drawing distance to clear the wheel stud shoulder. I have also tapered the end a bit so that the bolt will come out of the drum if the end mushrooms with the force
P.M./email me your address today and I will post them tomorrow.

Thanks Mark , the size I posted is what I've been told fits .
I need them to push the drums off .
That would be excellent if you could post a couple to me (all costs will be paid)

Hi Mark
I had spaces either side of the '@' which you would have to remove when in the address bar.

Bolts posted standard first packet this afternoon so Mon or Tue latest with you.

The bolts didn't cost me anything
