Give AEX a call, they have been my go to place for odd stuff like this. Lots of locations in So Cal

I find that hard to believe.

That is my last resort. Are you sure they will work fine and not damage the threads on my body?

how would you give them to me? we live in different states...


Who implied I was going to "Give" you anything?

Your OP asked where you could get them, I stated I have some, The implication is you could procur them from me. Stop by and we will talk.

Oh yeah, If comming to my place...Piece of advice, Call in advance or wear Kevlar.


yeah sorry, i don't think i can stop by, i will try aex instead..

This thread is ridiculous.

Almost all screw threads have long been standardized. All you need to do is find out if it is metric or SAE thread and it'll be a cinch. My guess would be metric, as most things made internationally are. Also, gearbox screws probably will work because they are standardized as well, assuming they are not too wide or skinny. The way to find out is to simply try it. If you need to force the screw to get it in, chances are its the wrong size, so stop.

Go to ACE, True-Value, or whatever you Californians have down there. My guess is that it will cost you less than 30 cents per screw, probably closer to 15 cents. Stores like Home Depot or Lowes will probably have what you want, but they sell small screws by the package, and there's no way to practice with one before you buy.
