Default Single ARP Bolts

This might be common knowledge, but I thought I'd share anyway. I've been slowly replacing bolts and nuts on my Dyna with ARP hardware. Sometimes customizers like IMZZ will have kits, sometimes not or they're out of stock and I end up ordering ARP 5 packs from Summit Racing. That works if you need more than just one or two bolts but can get pretty spendy pretty fast if you don't. I just found these guys yesterday and made an order so I can't say how service is yet, but the idea that I can order ARP singles is pretty awesome!

I am fortunate that we have a couple of industrial supply houses and/or fastener supply houses in my area. I can get what I need there. I've been building a stash of fasteners for use on the bike over the past few years. Another source to check is McMaster-Carr Supply. They have a full range of fasteners you can pick and chose from!
Good luck on your projects!

Ace Hardware, Home Depot & Lowes have at times a good selection of hardware including chrome for your ride. My Indy shop also carry big selection of chrome hardware. I use McMaster-Carr for bulk purchase of hardware or for hard to find items.

This is specifically about ARP hardware. I have never found ARP on McMaster-Carr or Home Depot, etc. nor have I ever found ARP singles online, just kits.

Sorry..... thought you were a bit disappointed in finding ARP hardware. I was just trying to offer an alternative.

Hey, I appreciate it, I'm just trying to spread the knowledge of what I found and maybe help some poor shlub like me that's in the same boat.

I've been buying from Allen Fasteners for over 10 years. Their prices have gone up a little the past couple years but they are still by far the best I know of. I always order quite a bit because they have flat rate shipping.
