[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 168057, member: 456"] OK chaps. I have just seen the machinists and they accept that it is their fault. They hope to have all 40 replacement bolts from the last batch of 20 steering head made in about two weeks time. In the mean time please contact me if you have bolts which need replacing. If you have used a large spanner and forced the FF53 into the bolt head then you will have destroyed the thread on that bolt as well and we need to replace that as well. Sorry about all this chaps but they have made over 310 of the steering heads now and this feature has remained unchanged for all that time. I have been back and checked earlier bolts which I have kept for my own use and they are ok so it seems only to be the last batch of 20. [/QUOTE]
