ok ladies, anyone have the skinny on the 4 studs & nuts? Looks like M10 1.25 but that failed the hardware store challenge...so did M10 1.0 & 1.5

maybe 7/16

So did Blue calm his nerves with beer and wrenching after the towers fell?

actually I was wrenching BEFORE the towers fell, and I'm in the Mountain (AZ) time zone...

and it was coffee at 0500; I never crack a beer before 0600 :)

blue. i never took that retaining screw out. you don't need to. and they gotta be 9/16. why do you want to take the drum off? how the hell did the screw jump ship? might want to check your 'stool'.

I didn't want to take my drum off - it wanted to come off on it's own. I'm in super-stealth Ford Windstar minivan mode, so the screw (now exposed with shaft removed) backed itself out. Or maybe someone stole it...bastards...
