i need help mounting my hi-lift on my LOD bumper and carrier without using the stock 7/16 x1.5" bolt.

it's a pain in the ass to have to break out my socket wrench.

i'm my mind i'm looking for some type of knob with a 7/16 thread on it that i can just hand tighten on and off..i did something similar with my old or-fab carrier.

i've found all sorts of threaded knobs as bog as 5/16, but can't find any at 7/16

i've tried the usual suspects--Granger, fastenal, JW Winco but no luck..

any other ideas?

 

If you can't find what you're looking for, go to Home Depot and get a couple 7/16'' wing nuts with washers.

 

Get a buddy to weld some wings on your nut or two longer bolts to it so you've got a solid handle.
