Having a time finding drilled shank bolts for the M100 support leg and draw bars. Two 1/2-20NFx1-3/4 and four 7/16-20NFx1. Strange, but there seems to be plenty of fine thread slotted nuts available but no bolts? No hits with the usual suppliers or NOS available either. Searched the topic on this site stem to stern with no joy. I'm guessing everybody is making their own?

Advice always appreciated!

AN 8-15 would give you a 1/2-20NF x 1 23/32" drilled for a cotter pin.
AN 7-7 would give you a 7/16-20NF x 31/32" drilled for a cotter pin.

These are the closest in length. Adding or subtracting a dash # will give you + or - 1/32" length.

Thanks Wes!

It looks like I can find stock for the AN 8-15 but no luck with the AN 7-7 so far.

I had an email address change last month and updated my profile. I added the admin email to my contact list as you suggested. Hopefully fixed the bouncing.

Just to close the loop, I ended up drilling my own using the guidance from the Model T folks at:

They turned out pretty good if I do say so myself!
