screw help

[bwm8142]

im looking for screws that are the same as the ax10 rtr shock mount screws, but longer than stock, anybody know were i can get some?

 

[autolawker]

wat size do you need i might hav some, get a ruler and measure it up

I believe they are 3mm. I usually go to the hobby and and ask for a certain lenght screw, due to crawlers not being standard kits. they usually have something that will work. the last ones i got where from hpi

most of the screws in the ax10 are 3mm - i think the shock-mount screws are 16mm long, but I could be wrong. I'd recommend mcmaster-carr if you're thinking of buying more than 1 or 2 screws. They have great prices and ship incredibly fast (had my stuff about 36 hours after i ordered it)

thanks for the help guys, salvaged the screws i needed off my stampede though "thumbsup"

Do you have an ACE hardware near you or another local hardware store? They might have the screw you need. My local ACE has a large selection of 3mm & 4mm hardware and a friendly staff as well.

To start off.....your thread title seemed to indicate you didn't WANT help.....:lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao:

Sorry...I just had to.

Glad you resolved your issue.

If you need stuff down the road, also see if you have a local Sears Hardware, they have an "OK" selection of 3mm socket head screws (button heads, flat heads, socket cap screws).

Also, McMaster-Carr is a GREAT source. They have black oxide finish, SS and lots of styles/sizes.
Their closest warehouse to me is in south NJ, I am in north NJ, if I order by early afternoon M-TH, I will have it the next day."thumbsup""thumbsup"

If there is a Sears Hardware (not a regular Sears) near you, they should carry a good selection of 3mm. That is where I get mine.

That's good to know, there's one not far from me.

I also have a fastenal close which usually has a decent selection, they are just kind of expensive.

A lot of times places like Fastenal you need to buy in high quantities if they don't stock the screw you are looking for.
