replacing allen screws with slotted
« on: August 08, 2017, 11:51:08 AM »
Can I replace the Allen (hex head) pole screws in my aftermath (or other BKP)  with regular slotted screws?
Do they need to be / can they be ordered from BKP?

Or maybe somewhere closer than the UK (i'm in the US)



Has anyone actually done this - so it's not just a guess - but actual fact ?
And where sis you get your slotted screws?


Thanks!

I did ask Ben about this once.

They can provide the screws but it's best to order them with something else as you have to pay the minimum postage charge

you can get the screws from WD and AllParts.

best check the thread first though. BKP use very specific screws, the same as the original PAFs.
