Can anyone tell me where I can buy bulk buy imperial screws for associated screws. When I say bulk I don't mean the 1000's more like 50 of each.

I feel that paying £3 for 8 screws can only be described as daylight robbery!

Can you also advise which ones to purchase aswell??

Thanks in advance for your help

Wez,
I'll post a link up to a firm I found down south when I next use the computer which seemed to carry the majority of Team Associated sizes and types of screws, from memory they sell them in quantities of ten.

Most are 4-40 UNC, the little screws that hold the hinge pins in are obviously a little smaller (2-56), also the wheel nuts are the other way and a little bigger (8-32) .

Not UNF fine

I have mod kits for the hinge pins and bulkhead screws in the for sale section. They have 5/64 hex instead of the tiny .050
