BX-25D ,PTB. Under Armor, '90&'92-B7100HST's, '06 BX1850 FEL
After a good day of work yesterday (been crazy warm here) the ol BX25D took a bath an had a good clean up and greasing.
Noticed the FEL stick seemed a little out there - as if it was too far to the right - more so than usual.
Taking the cover off and with some good light - low and behold - the magic nut that keeps the adjuster tight, was completely ....gone!!!! At least one side was still tight. So off to the local hardware store........find it to be a M8-1.00 .....well of course that is not available at that store...... Finally at Lowes - they have a 4 pack, 3 something....well - at least I have some spares even after double nutting them!
