I lucked out and found one that had them in all lengths but yes not full threads past 1 1/2. What's your theory with the star washers? I used thick flat washers to get them to seat flush. I like those spacers Mike ... source? Needed 2” full thread, not available at stores but McMaster Carr had em and shipped me 10. Star washers?? Not sure the were needed but I installed em anyway. They were cheap, unlike the bolts. And the spacers, they were sitting on a guys table for sale at a tractor show and my son grabbed em. No brand name on them that I could find.

I've countersank them in the past. Agreed. For a threaded-hole situation like that, I would usually (as you mentioned) countersink the hole a bit to provide clearance for the little radius (fillet) between the underside of the bolt head and the bolt shank. Of course a washer would also do the trick. Edited 2 hours ago by Blue Chips Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
