If you need some lube plugs or taps drop me a PM I'll send some your way... I work in a machine shop. Got them laying around every where. All I need to know is how big are the holes right now. You can go to a larger size.

For all of the god dammed posts I read about how my pipes sound like a potato potato, won't ride if it's windy or a chance of rain, should I buy either orange disposables or molded ear plugs? This guy formike56 makes it all worth wile. A big hand for this guy to step up and share with others.

The pipe thread is defenitely the way to go. But, you could also try a liquid pipe dope to see if it will seal it up. It's called Rector Seal IIRC. This **** will seal damn near anything up! Smear some on the threads, and install screw. It's made for pipe fittings, but, it might just work here too.
