Got it thanks. I may just leave these alone for now. I like the JHP route too but looks like they're out of 1-1/2" for now. Maybe I'll give the socket hex a trial on my old fixer upper that was never meant to be anything more than making it mechanically sound.Chris, I had the same problem when I restored my 1000 last year. All the hardware on the grill was stainless except the handle mounting bolts. I attacked the bolts with a dremel mounted wire brush and sandpaper. Once they were shiny, I hit them with hi-temp clear coat. It's not stainless, but it's better than it was.
1/4" x 1 1/2" Zinc plated steel is what I use (97245A637), but I don't have problems with corrosion.I went to the link for the Clevis pins and the cotter pins. I noted that they need to be 1/4" in diameter but could not find any that were 4 cm long or 4.5, as some of them are. What am I missing?
