I have a 2002 wide glide and the upper mounting bolt for the front brake is missing. The lower is still in there. I was wondering if this is something I can get a hardware store. I know it's 12pt/10mm but I don't know the length of the bolt to look for and I'm not spending $45 at HD for a 6 pk to replace one bolt. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

 

I dont know why they would not sell the mounting bolts separately ...
The mounting bolts , (for your 2002) , are different lengths, and part no, (see pic)..
I would not mess with different mounting hardware,,, Your choice !!!!

 

It may be fine thread for vibrations. You could just gret a few lengths. If you go with stainless use antiseize so it does gall.

I am surprised Harley won't just sell one. Some items I go to hardware store for, some times I just pay $3 for a bolt that fits the first time, depends on my mood.

Also not the ticks 3 ticks grade 5, 6 grade 8.

I wonder if it is 12 point so you can get a better grip with wrench, it is around 38 ft lbs, or it may just look nice, in an exposed area.

 

I think you are looking for item #6. It looks like a $2.05 part that is sold individually.

For $2 I would go to the dealer, even though I am anti dealer typically.

 

Yes, Get one from HD the collar length and diameter is IMPORTANT.
