Cross Bolt Nut

Post by mcsupersoldier »

Anyone have an extra cross bolt nut they want to get rid of? I have a T53 that is missing one.

If you are talking about the stock bolt, eBay has plenty. Now the tool to tighten...?

I guess this is the technical term for what i need. Mosin Nagant Recoil Lug Spanner Nut
Liberty Tree has them but I'm afraid that the shipping would cost more than the nut.

You don't need a special tool - just use thin long nosed pliers. I don't know, however, how much you should torque them down. Most refurbs I have received are only torqued on about 5 lbs. - not much at all. I would say just enough to hold them on snuggly. You can get the cross bolts quite readily. check Liberty Tree or BuyMilsurp.
