OK, so silly me removed the muffler while doing some service to my 99 X1. I was out and around and at a quick stop noticed that the muffler was hanging a bit low in the back. That is when I noticed that bolt came loose and the nut assembly had fallen out. Any ideas where I can find a new nut assembly or how I can get around this dilemma? I already thought about just putting a nut under it, but I will not be able to get a wrench on it to hold when I try to tighten it down. And trust me, I will use some thread locker next time. |

Did the bolt just fall out? If so just get another bolt at the hardware store. And maybe use Nylocks instead of Locktite. (Message edited by Buell_Bert on January 25, 2009) |

You really need the "dogbone" nut plate to put it back together..I'm pretty sure I have rear HW kits in stock at the store, ping me there, sales @ americansportbike dot com. Al |
