So i that how hard could it be , after looking at cost of new and shipping
I decided to give it a try....drilled a hole from thread end through head of bolt
I think it was a 3/16 but I'd have to check to be sure . Then drilled a bigger hole in the bolt head and tapped it for the zirk. Thank goodness for drill press's .
Did somebody say drill press!!??
