Corner steady problem

[norman_5111905]

Recently bought a second hand Fleetwood van, and found out the corner steady hexagon headed screws we use for lowering and highering are worn to the extent that my new standard extension socket is spinning on the hexagon, the steadyies are well greased and are not tight. Question:- is it possible to replace just the screw, or do I have to replace the corner steadies complete.In either case can anyone point me in the right direction to purchase these items . Thanks for any help offered.

Take your van to a welding shop and ask him to weld some 19mm nuts onto the worn ones. Cheap, simple and effective.

Hi Norman - you may find that a hexagon socket (as opposed to a bi-hexagon) will work on the worn heads, worth a try

Hi John, thanks, it makes sense, will try and get one and weld it to the new extension I use with the the power drill.
