Subject: [TR] TR3A Grab Handle Screws

Does anyone know the size/type of the screw used to mount the grab handle on
TS81802 ?   The Parts Manual appears to have only the pre-60k because there
is no way to get a Simmonds fix nut (speed nut) behind it.   I think it is
either a wood screw or there is a capture nut of some kind mounted in the
rail.

Thanks

> is no way to get a Simmonds fix nut (speed nut) behind it.   

On the post-60K body I parted out, there were slots in the sheet metal on the bottom of the rail which gave just enough room to
slide the fix nuts into place.  (Had kind of a hard time getting them back out.)  So I believe the YJ2526 screw shown in the later
SPC is correct for post-60K.

But that was a long time ago, so I could be wrong.

I am getting ready for a local show this Saturday and I think this is going
to have to wait until afterwards as I think I'll have to take the capping
off to see what is underneath.=C2=A0=20
