Loose bolt at the crest

[Lurch]

[quoteThe nut barely fits on the bolt and its hard to tell if its tight at a glance ... A longer bolt or locktight would be advisable[/quote]

This means it was drilled too deep more than likely. Lock Nut wouldn't be a bad idea either. What you didn't have a wrench and a spare nut with you? Should be standard equipment.

The new metiolus nut tool has wrench holes for 12mm, 3/8", 10mm, 1/4 " bolts built into the handle. No excuses now.

Was there on Sunday and a guy was roping up for it. I told him about the fourth bolt, he checked it on his way up and said the bolt looked brand new and bomber.

Man .. that is a nasty rash on his face. I hope it isn't permanent!

here my partner holding the "bomber" hanger, nut and draw:mrgreen:

I'm not calling you a liar mate, just telling you a thing I know. For all we know the bolt had already been tightened or even replaced. Chill out.
