WANTED: Rocker arm stud

Post by amulheirn »

Just messed up one stud on my new cylinder heads, and buying a whole set of 16 from the US seems excessive. The single items are on back-order, so I thought I'd ask here on the off-chance that someone has a spare.

I need a single rocker arm stud, with the following measurements:

Base thread = 7/16"
Base length = 0.680"
Stud diameter = 3/8"
Effective stud length = 1.75"

These are part number 4502-16, seen here:

Any help appreciated!

Damn - pity you didn't post this yesterday - I put in a parts order with Jegs yesterday morning and they are showing stock of single ones at $5.47 each, ship today. I've checked tracking and my order has already been despatched - sorry.
No singletons on ebay at all?

Ah - not to worry but thanks Roger! It's all very strange - I actually ordered two from Jegs on the 31st August (in case I mess another one up), but got an email from them yesterday saying they were out of stock, giving me the option to wait or cancel. They expect to ship on the 19th September, but their website says the 6th. Ho hum!

Typical US parts supplier - when I looked the site said 'despatch today'. They don't tell you it's out of stock until you've paid for it.
