Title: Oil Cooler Bolts Missing...
Post by: nKhona on October 13, 2006, 06:39:04 PM
I was working on my bike an noticed the bolts for my oil cooler (the ones on the top of the actual cooler) are missing. Any one know what size I can get to replace them?

check ronayers.com parts microfiche. when you find the part number the description will tell you the size bolt. dont order from them though-there's a $7 min shipping charge. Either get it at your local hardware store for $0.25/each or pay $1.50 at suzuki dealer ( or whatever the costs are).

Whenever I'm missing a bolt, I just ride to the hardware store (so long as it's safe to ride) grab a few bolts that are close to the right size, walk out to the parking lot and see which one fits. Then just put the rest back and buy the ones you need. Most places will let you do it, especially if you don't ask first.  :thumb:

Throw a zip tie on there to get you to the hardware store and you'll be good to go.
Have fun  :cheers:
