I don't know anybody who swaps their
lift bolts out every few years!

We do now!

Yep........ at least once I will have....... :-)


Well, at least it didnt end up bow first stuck into the bottom in 30' of
water, flood destructing its interior with seawater.

Be very thankful.....to the bolt gods.

Remind me again why we can't use STAINLESS bolts, other than the lift
manufacture saves 12 cents per unit cost??

We also have MONEL bolts if stainless won't work, adding 24 cents per
unit costs to the lift.

Navy brass is too soft.



Only an old fart like you (or me) remembers monel.

Hey, I use monel staples all the time.

I use monel five cent coins.
