Man, I love Tractor Supply Company.....I just needed a few grade 8 bolts for the front 5mph bumper bracketry on my Corvette...they were the only place I could find open today...they sell their nuts, bolts, washers, etc. BY THE POUND!!

And the have all the usual sizes we need for our little cars...Grade 8 is $3.99 per pound; grade 5 is $2.99. I'm going back next week & fill up a whole bunch of bins with sizes I usually use - it will definitely save me a running around to find 4 bolts & 2 nuts!

thought you'd just come to these boards for 2 nuts - easy

I carry two nuts with me at all times. Just cuz ya never know.

Well, this thread is certainly heading south real quickly......

Kinda like that thread where Camshaft was looking for your number. WOT.

Looks like the closest Tractor Supply to me is in Bakersfield, about 110 miles away.

mmm... long way t' go fer a ...


OH NEVERMIND!!!

And your point, Colonel, is...?

I'm lucky enough to live in the middle of Illinois and have several farmer supply stores around. There are some TSC store around, but I normally go to BigR, Rual King or Farm and Fleet. Try them and I think you will like them.

Ah, but do they come WITH rust so they'll blend right in?

or do you prefer stainless nuts?

Got a tractor supply 'bout a mile from home base here. Definatly one of my more favorite stores. Fixed the roto-tiller from heck this spring for next to nothing using bulk chain, and then they had the woodruff keys I needed for 30 some cents a piece. I dunno about your store, but the help at our store leaves a bit to be desired. You need to know what you want before you go, and if you're buying something big, make sure it's all there before you leave. they tried to sell me a sand blast cabinet missing a bunch of parts once.
