Size of B&M shifter bolts

[CaifanSC]

Im looking for the two bolts that hold the ripper shifter to the shifter handle. The ones that came with the shifter are torx and are kinda wearing...so i want to replace them with regular hex ones. Thanx!

If I remember correctly, they are SAE 5/16" NC

I bought the large head allen bolts. Much stronger than those cheesy little allen bolts that come with the Ripper. Don't forget to put some Loctite on the threads!!!!!! If you don't, you'll be tightening them up every 2 months!!!!!! BTDT!!!!!

Hey Cougar, you said the size is SAE 5/16" NC, what does the NC stand for? I took my handle out yesterday and the bolts are starting to strip, so i Must get new ones now.

NC stands for National Coarse and NF stands for National Fine

Thanx man, i got some from lowes. Just for future reference if anybody needs them they are 5/16-18, I got 5/16-18x1-1/4 which are 1-1/4" long, but they stick out a bit. The perfect size would be 1" (5/16-18x1).
