Default Lost my nuts...

Reinstalling my pipes, dropped my exhaust nut down in the valley somewhere between the inner primary and trans.

Tried the magnet thing....no luck. I've got some more nuts with lock washers gonna give them a try.

My question is.....do I HAVE to find the ones I lost......can they find their way into the back side of the primary/clutch or somewhere else that would be bad news.

Thanks

Good deal...I hate losing my nuts (or anything) inside any functioning part of a vehicle.

What I hate is the warp hole they fall into, because they NEVER end up where they should !!
