Dave* Posted March 26, 2005 Report Share Posted March 26, 2005 I just blew out the outside ankle cuff rivet , (temporaily t bolted) will the inside cuff cant assembly work on the outside? Or should I just stick with the t bolts, kinda ugly. Dave* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobdea Posted March 26, 2005 Report Share Posted March 26, 2005 probably get a new rivet in there many rental shops have the tool to do that because the same thing happening to rental boots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave* Posted April 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 It appears that when the ankle rivet went the upper long pin holding the 5 position lockout also broke. (not sure which part snapped first) I do not have a spare readily available, at least a few weeks to get any shipped, was wondering about easy substitutes. ie a clevis pin of the right diameter Has this been tried, would it work? Other ideas? Thanks Dave* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZE Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 I've had this happen a couple of times and you can slip a small bolt through where the pin was and secure it with two nuts on the end. Make sure the bolt you use is small enoughht not to cause the buckle to not close fully which can cause it to open unser stress. If you go to a good hardware store they should have those racks with individual hardware parts and you can find everything you need and be able to see if it fits first. They will also have the stainless T-bolts to replace you buckle rivet as well. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
