Author Message   Buckley Posted on Monday, March 11, 2013 - 08:21 pm:        I am slowly starting to put my 00' Cyclone together. The project started with a frame and swingarm, and it slowly moving forward from there. I did however have a few questions... When installing the oil tank I noticed that all four well nuts were missing. I tried Home Depot, an Ace Hardware, and a Harley dealer but have yet to find any luck finding any parts. I was curious as to if anyone knew where I might be able to find these, or if these would do the trick: http://www.mcmaster.com/#well-nuts/=lu64r1 I was also curious as to if anyone knew off hand what size the two allen keys were to remove the pin holding the swingarm in place.   Jayvee Posted on Tuesday, March 12, 2013 - 11:23 am:        Looks good to me. McMaster = cavalry   Bigslug Posted on Tuesday, March 12, 2013 - 03:31 pm:        The Lowe's here in town has well nuts in the hardware section. Mike   Hootowl Posted on Tuesday, March 12, 2013 - 03:45 pm:        "two allen keys were to remove the pin holding the swingarm in place" I'm not aware of a pin that hold the swingarm in place. Do you mean the isolator bolts, or maybe the pinch bolts?   Buckley Posted on Tuesday, March 12, 2013 - 05:30 pm:        Sorry I don't have my manual with me at the moment. I believe it calls them out as the isolator bolts. Didn't have the correct size allen on hand so I was going to order off of McMaster with the well nuts but I was unable to find the correct size in the manual.   Gnutlethal Posted on Tuesday, March 12, 2013 - 05:39 pm:        Torx T60, if I recall correctly from my belt change.   Buckley Posted on Tuesday, March 12, 2013 - 05:57 pm:        Great, I'll give the T60 a shot, thanks. Might as well throw new rubber isolators and seals in there as well.   Jim2 Posted on Wednesday, March 13, 2013 - 05:55 pm:        A coupling-nut used for coupling threaded rods can be used to install/remove the isolator bolts. I forget the size but it's a common size you should be able to find at any hardware store. Just put the appropriate sized socket on one end of the coupling-nut and install the other end into the isolator bolt.   Jim2 Posted on Wednesday, March 13, 2013 - 05:57 pm:        Found the sizes. For the coupling nut get a 5/16"-18 X 7/8" or longer. The nut will fit inside of a 1/2" socket and can then be used like a giant allen wrench.   Buckley Posted on Monday, March 18, 2013 - 09:13 pm:        Thanks Jim, I just put my order in with McMaster. I think those should do the trick
