Default Daggum NSS Adjustor Bolt Size is Wrong
I am replacing my NSS. Previous owner snapped off the adjuster bolt. I looked online for replacement and this is what I came up with and bought: 5/16"-18x3/4" or M8-1.25x20m/m.

I bought the metric size. Went to install and there is no way this bolt is long enough. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Russ

Can't you just get one at ACE hardware? Blow $2 and get a handful, IDK myself if it's metric or not.

Well the standard on you posted at 3/4 length is also too short...I would just get each bolt in a length that looks like it needs and go.

The 97-98 parts catalog says that bolt is an M8x1.25x30. Dont see why it would be any different for 99-01.
