Help! Lost a screw to my 288K

[tgd3]

As the title says I lost one of the lug screws to my PAM 288K. I noticed it was gone about 2 hours ago. I spent an hour searching the carpet and an hour crying... But i've composed myself enough to ask for help here. Has anyone bought a screw for the 288 before? Or (even better) does someone have an extra?

NOTE: I think the newer 288's have different lug screws than the older model 288's.

Thanks guys.

if you do order from panatime - make sure you get the right ones
i ordered just reg rad screws and bars and they are different sizes
so make sure you get the right ones for the 288
same thing happened to me
SO SMALL!

I think thats the one I bought
I havent gotten around to return it
I didnt get an email back from them after i asked if they had the correct 288
so yeah - they may not have it
I'd try to get email clarification from them before ordering even though its only $15

if you do find helpful information on if they have it or who does - please repost
thanks!

No response from Panatime as of yet.
I emailed MR to see if they could throw in a set with my incoming order. MR said that the maker doesn't sell/give the screw/bar sets for the 288K. Said he's tried before and been turned down.

Great news for anyone who has lost a lug screw! I finally found a replacement. The screw looks and fits perfectly.

For anyone looking: email Wilson at [email protected]
2 Screws = $3
2 Screws + Bar Set = $6
Shipping = $6
I asked Wilson for a part/order number so i'll post that when he gets back to me. If you need one ASAP just say you need a 288 screw in an email.

And for anyone who hasn't lost one but is afraid they might, i would order one now as they took +20 days to ship.
