Ladder Bolt Missing - replacement ideas? - i2007 Speedster

[MVPeterP]

Hi guys,

i went to pull my ladder yesterday and it slide right now. I looked on the ordering forms and it looks like a roll pin or something. Just curious if anyone has h ad that fall out and if you just used a regular bolt or something to keep it in. it appears it is just the bolt to keep the ladder in the bracket.

any ideas or tricks? what size/type bolt did you use if you did that method.

thanks for the help.

Yes I wrote off my original ladder, ordered new brackets but not roll pins. I used SS bolts and nylock nuts, over the bit of thread the ladder will roll against I used some plastic tube over the thread to protect the ladder.

That's a great idea. Even if I keep the ladder, the plastic over the bolt is awesome. Thanks!
