Where can I find odd ball SS studs?
I'm looking for a odd ball SS stud. It's 3/8-16 on one end and 7/16-20 on the other end. Its 3 7/8" long.
I've tried IMCO, Latham, Mcmaster-Carr, Grainger, and a few others. Even spoke to a couple of machine shops but they no longer do 1-offs.
It's used to attach the factory Fountain wing-plate to the rear cover of the driveshaft housing.

I spent all day Monday calling and emailing different companies I found online. Came up with nothing. Even the places that said they do custom orders weren't interested. Thx for the effort though.
I'll have to bookmark that totallystainless site. May come in handy when I get back around to tinkering with my cars.
