Another head cover question? (Read 100 times)

When I last assembled mine, I put in a threaded rod with a nut welded on the bottom. When I decide to eliminate those chrome pieces - I can just trim the length of the bolt down and put an acorn nut on top.

Dave, when you use all thread, put the nut on first then back it off after the cut (With a hack saw) to straighten the threads all nice and neat. Wink
