Look up Albany fasteners, and the head on that is messing up your measurements. Just measure your thread length and go shopping.

Beside the correct size, try to buy good quality black oxide screws also very important. I would humble suggest grade 12.9 is the best choice. |

I have NO idea about screws, I wouldn't know where to start, (I don't know how to read/measure screws) ,sorry. I wouldn't know what to type to search for a screw . I technically have no idea what to search for. I don't have calipers to measure either . |

Frank, go to Home Depot, they have a 6" machinist ruler for under $2, or you can pick up an inexpensive caliper for under $20.

Pick up a digital caliper, they are so handy and important. I use mine all the time. If you have a harbor freight near you, you can get one there. Anyways, the only time you measure the whole screw (with head) to see the length, is a flat head screw. Button and cap head screws are only measured by the threads. So him measuring the whole screw is wrong. So without the cap head measured, its a 10mm long screw. And looks like M2.5 size, so you'll need a M2.5x10mm cap head screws. You can find SS/black oxide hardware from team knk, they sell bulk kits, specific vehicle's or 25/100 single bags.

i personally like more the manual calipers, the digi ones are some time not precise if u slide them to fast. i have 2 digi and one manual which i use normally, the others if i can't find my loved one. but it's a necessary tool if you wrench on your little trucks |
