Hello everyone - I’ve got a C&P 10x15 new style that I’ve just bought and it’s missing the rocker lock spring and bolt thingo. Can anyone tell me what length the spring and bolt should be (with the split pin end)?
Thanks
Greg

I have a 10x15 old style, so not sure if they’re the same spring. But just in case it’s helpful, here are photos. Glad I snapped them when I was replacing the lock roller!

here is the “new style” way to do the same thing. the threads on the bolt have been chased much further down the bolt to allow zero compression at assembly while turning down to proper compression for operation. with a store bought Die, you can do the threads yourself. this is a grade 5 bolt, i prefer grade 8, but i have a high quality die for the hardness of the 8.
