Subject:83.5 Westy Missing slider door inside lever retaining screw
From:David Richoux
Date:Mon, 5 Dec 2005 11:30:44 -0800

Hi all,

I was trying to close the sliding door on my 83.5 Westy when the
inner door handle "pull-lever latch" came off - no retaining screw! I
have no idea when or where the screw was lost, nothing in my "hell-
box" of old screws fits.

I am trying to guess the size and thread pitch before going to the
hardware store - is it possibly a M5 x .80 or .50 pitch? Length? The
Bentley just says Phillips Screw on page 58.3 Fig 1. without any
other spec.

Anybody know?

TIA
