Does anyone have any surplus set screws and jam nuts for sale? Or recommend a source for new. I need a couple for the brake pedals and one of the small ones for the foot clutch pedal adjustment.

Thanks in advance

The little one can probably be had from places like McMaster-Carr www.mcmaster.com providing a cup point works. The big one still has a valid AC number and dealers witih AC parts have them, something like $31 each last I checked by part number. And that dealer at Marshaltown actually had one in stock.

The pointed ones for the starter (the same?) come up on e-pay regularly.

$31 dollars, holly setscrew batman, I'm glad I have a usable lathe out in the shed. I could turn that taper in a couple minutes.

Yes but everything is under snow and it is cold out. I am staying in the house and burn firewood.

My post back in August said:
I saw a few of those at Marshalltown at the Mid-Iowa Antique Power Association Show. Most had hex heads, looked like about 11/16", maybe 5/8" with thin but large lock nuts. A couple had screwdriver slots, as if they were conventional set screws used as replacements. I didn't get to see the taper.

I visited the Central Iowa Farm Store at Marshalltown after lunch and asked about those set screws. They have ONE in stock part number 207872 for $39.48. I should have asked, "Is that for a box of ten or 25?" I wished I had a dial caliper with me to measure that sample.

To which Ray posted:
$10.00 each. 785-353-2392
So if they can be had for that price I can't buy one for measuring the taper and go turn them in my little lathe.

The ones with the screwdriver slots were originally used to locate and retain the starter.

Try Sandy Lake Iplement.  I bought the set screw in your photo from them last spring.
