Need a couple armor bolts

[Torque]

I need two more 1 1/2" armor bolts to complete my windshield armor, anyone got any? Thanks!

Are you sure it is 1 1/2" you need? I'm sure mine are all 1 1/4" armor bolts.

I know a guy in the U.K. selling some on eBay. I don’t think he ships overseas and they aren’t cheap at 5 for £20, but if you can’t find them state side, then it’s an option and I can forward them on to you.

Thanks, I went ahead and used the 1 1/4" bolts, they don't reach all the way through the nuts but will be OK.

Here's a shot of the windshield armor bolts on an original (1950's BM rebuild) halftrack.  The bolts barely engage the locking part of the lock nut.

I just bolted my hinges on with 1 1/4" bolts...the repro hinges are probably slightly thicker than originals, and the locking part of the nuts don't engage any threads on the bolts.  I used some Permatex threadlocker, just in case.  Would like to swap these out for some longer bolts if anyone finds a US source.
