You might give Aircraft Spruce a try for the bolts you need. If I remember correctly C I got my prop bolts from them. I can't recall the details C but I seem to recall something about mine being metric C too C and I also seem to remember the 8.8 grade for propellers.

Yeah I looked at the online catalogue and couldn't find any metric fasteners at all. But I'll ring them up and see if they got them and there just aren't any on the website.
I'm going to go by the local FBO also, tho they may not have any metric stuff at all either (they don't work on anything foreign really)....

Check your area for an implement (tractors) store and see if they have them. I checked all over Boise Idaho trying to find some and was referred to a John Deer dealer, and they had both the size and was the only place that had the length that I needed. They are the same bolts.

If all else fails, McMaster Carr has them. Their warehouse in L.A. should have them to you in a couple of days.

Thanks guys, like I replied in the other thread, I found a Fastenal here in town at John H's suggestion. They had what appears to be the correct bolt, 8.8 grade, M8 1.25 x 40 partial thread. I talked it over with Daryl over lunch on the phone, while I was at the plane with the tape measure. It looks like this will be the exact size and grade needed based on measuring and what Daryl said was required, thickness of the extension etc..
oh well, learned a whole bunch about metric bolts over the last day or so...

I found 8.8 partialy threaded bolts at home depot,also Lowes has a good selection.I did have to cut 1/4 in. off the threads so they would fit my HKS. We use locknuts behind the ext. so drilling the heads was not a problem.

Lucien:
Based on the time Kolbs have been out there, about 99% of the time somebody
on this List has already had the problem and can point you in the right
direction to get it solved.
