Types of Screws/Washers used on Rocker Spears
« on: October 09, 2023, 03:44:21 AM »
Hi First Gen Experts -

Well, I haven't seen a posting on this topic before.  Does anyone know the GM part number and where I can purchase the factory correct retaining screws used on the rocker spears for a 1968 base model Camaro?  Were there also washers used?  Need the information for judging purposes.  Many thanks.  gwp4

AMK is the best supplier for original type hardware.

Learning more and more about less and less...

I get that a lot of things are difficult to reproduce exactly, but something this simple I just don't understand.
