[R-390] R-390A PTO ground strap screw

[KR4HV]

Hi Bob.  When you find out exactly what type screw it is you may want to try
Fastenal(www.fastenal.com/).  I am not connected with them, just a customer.
They are an industrial supplier and can get just about any screw & bolt made
with any thread count, US, course or fine and metric) .  They don't cater to
the individual trade but will sell to us. Most of their locations (check the
computer, they are all over the US) stock down to 4-40 or 6-32 in stainless,
cadmium and brass but I have just gotten some 3-48s, 2-56s, 0-80s & M3s in
different lengths in stainless from them (they ordered them for me and it
took all of 3 days delivered to their store). 

I particularly like the stainless nuts with captive star washers in 4-40,
6-32 & 8-32, etc.  Work great in tight places. They sell them in bags of 50
or 100 in these sizes.. 

You may have to order 25 or 50 of a part number as they typically don't sell
by "each".  They are much more affordable than the hardware or builder's
mart.

(Let me put it this way: I knew when I had the PTO up over my head and the
little screw balanced on my screwdriver that it wasn't a real smart thing to
do, haha!)

Isn't it just a standard stainless panhead Phillips #4-40 or #2-56, etc.?  I
can't remember as it's been a few years since I looked at one.
