    81 GS450EX SS Socket Caps - anyone have a complete list?

    I'm trying to locate on here where someone has a complete list of the bolt/screw swap outs to change over to socket caps.

    and on this note.... it is cheaper to buy the 25-100 screw bags of socket cap ss than it is to buy the 4 screw bags. I have been slowly purchasing mine at Fastenal. Once I have a list for the 450, I will share. I'm kinda tired of showing up in the parking lot, removing 1 screw at a time from different locations taking them inside for sizing, then going back out and wash rinse repeat.

    I will be offering a "box set" of ss socket caps for 450 once I am done....since I have been buying the 50/100 bags for $7 a bag..... I am going to have a little left over.

    They way its looking... My total investment in ss socket caps will be around $50-$70... will probably be able to get bags together, labeled and packaged for around $25-$30 a bag.... would you pay for the convenience? Buying the 4-8 packs at $3-$5 a bag will cost you much more... and will give me a little walking cash and something to do during the week.

    Check out the guy I use http://stores.ebay.ca/northernsupply2012/ ,even with shipping to the US he should be way cheaper.Screws and bolts can usually be decoded using the PN in a fiche,this case bolt is 09103-08070,the 08070 translates to a 8mm bolt 70mm long.The 2 zeros are place holders for longer bolts.

        I hate to burst your bubble but Z1 already have this covered for $26.97... bought mine from them years ago...

        Replace those chewed and rusty Philips pan-head screws with easy to install (and remove) socket head screws. Kit comes with the hex key wrenches.Note : While most stainless steel is non-magnetic, the cold rolling technique used to create the threads on the bolts causes the bolts to become slightly magnetic
