Default RF94 Stack Dash anti vibration mounts and CV bolts

Anyone know where I can get the rubber antivibration mounts/studs for mounting a stack dash which screw right into the frame on an rf94. I can find the mounts but not in the size I need. I measure them as 3/16-32. Also I need to replace the cv bolts that go through the hub of the upright and attach to the cv and was wondering what specific grade bolt should be used. Thanks for any help!

McMaster Carr: http://www.mcmaster.com/#vibration-d...mounts/=hxs9bs

I like using them, but the problem I always have with these is it's hard to keep them from turning when you try to use locking nuts (even nylon).

Use standard nuts & loctite instead.

Should of looked at Mcmaster since they usually have everything. Thanks! Am I right in saying these are size 10-32?

Grade 8 steel bolt recommended for CV?

For the CV, use at least an alloy steel socket head cap screw. I prefer to use an MS20005 internal wrenching bolt with appropriate washer because I don't ever seem to find them coming loose.

Default CV Bolts

Never had an problems using AN bolts for CV joints. Hewland came standard with less than that. Everything else will fail before they will.
We also stock 10/32 soft mounts for things like that.

AN bolts are plenty strong. I just have found that the higher strength bolts don't come loose as much.

for the early 90s VD though the outer assembly requires a SHCS. Inners can take AN.
