1/4-20x3/8 slotted brake drum screws

Post by RonD2 »

Maybe it's just me but I searched every hardware store in town twice and couldn't locate the proper M38/M100 brake drum to hub screws (1/4-20x3/8 slotted). Plenty of 1/2-inch Phillips and those goofy combination slotted-phillips crap screws. Patience! I found a batch of 108 NOS on fleabay for $1.49 + $7.49 shipping = $8.98, or .08 cents each.

I don't need 108 for my M38 and pair of M100's in my lifetime, so I thought I'd offer up about 80 I don't need for cost + postage. Pretty small thing for the cause but if it helps because you can't find any either you can send me a couple of U.S. bucks and 12 will appear in your mailbox in no time. Too late for me, but think of the time and gas you'll save not looking in every hardware store in town. :D All profits will go to a good cause, because I'm thirsty. :idea:

Good find. I have searched up here in Canada and had no luck either. I lucked out and found that BCA (Brian) had a few kicking around for me.

Well, that little exercise cost me a 12-pack (and I don't mean PBR either). Who knew the USPS charges that much to mail 6 ounces of teeny-tiny screws?$@&^*(&$@ It gives me a whole new appreciation for the folks out there making, stocking, selling, and shipping jeep parts for a living! 8O

Just grousing.....I've made larger mistakes buying wrong jeep parts. :roll:

Thanks for the reminder Ron, I still got some of your screws left to use. Sweden is now coming from winter to spring, some jeep work still to do.
