Can you measure it, please?

I bet bolts from a lot of other models would fit, and I bet a lot of us have these lying around our garages. Me, for example. But we'll need a few measurements to verify.

In case anyone was wondering, you measure the length of a bolt from UNDER the head to the tip. You measure the diameter of a bolt across the threads (this is probably a 12mm diameter bolt, but PLEASE measure. "About 1/2 inch" doesn't tell us much.).

In other words, the thickness or diameter of the bolt head is not important, so do not include it in the measurements.

Rich (pokeneye),
I think I MIGHT have a spare in my stash at home.
I'll dig around...might take a day or two.

If I find it...it's yours for the cost of shipping only.
Do you need the motor mounts also?

Bolt

I just need the bolt and nut. Head snapped right off clean. It almost looks like there was a defect in the steel. Let me know if you find anything. Thanks for the help, Rich

Take the broken bolt to a hardware store. They will probably have metric replacements. That's what I did when I needed a couple of motor mount bolts. It's just hardware.
