Fender Screws

Re: Fender reviews?
Can anyone tell me if the fender comes with screws. By looking at it, I think the screws would need to be longer than the regular ones. I'm pretty sure if it does come with screws, my two year old put them in a safe place for me. Please let me know. Also, if it does come with screws, can someone let me know what size and length I need. Thanks all.

@nickboyd78 they come with bolts. I have the size somewhere, but I can't locate it ATM.

They do come with longer screws.
They're attached to the paper label inside.

@drew I'd like to know the size if you found it... one of mine stripped or shimmied out on the v1, thought about trying to replace it. Thanks.

@bizrock size is 3/4" 10-32 machine screws.
Unfortunately if it fell out, it probably stripped from the rail. Only way to fix that is to tap a larger screw hole and replace with a larger diameter screw. Or you could just get some Velcro/magnets.
The reason they strip is the same reason why the foot pad screws strip. They are not re-enforced like most of the screws on the underside of the rails. They are just threaded aluminum which is super soft and prone to stripping.

@jeffmccosker I still need to order spares. What is the site you use again?

@drew I found them on Amazon, but they are like a 100 pack. you should be able to get them at your local hardware store.

@nickboyd78
Why does my fender “kit” not have screws? Are we using the ones in the board ?
-
@baker did you double check the box for the longer screws?
You can either buy your own or call FM.
