Wow, I would not have thought to check those bolts. Thanks. Makes sense. Wonder if that's why I've got a sticky latch on the streetside ???
Have to check on those too. As to the 4 front latches that lock the shells in place. The sheet metal screws on the vertical risers had come loose, so I drilled them out and installed 4, stainless 1/4"-20 x 1-1/2" long bolts with split lock washers and jam nuts. Worked out great!

Thanks for the size details on replacing the sheet metal screws in the vertical risers.
Have you or any other member come up with a good way to tighten up screws which have worked loose in the main body of the TM? We have a few like that: around the wheel guard, refer grill area etc. Could use a larger diameter screw but it nice having all screws interchangable.
FYI we too lost a nut-bolt on our black spring latch this last trip. My husband had a terrible time in our rural community finding something which would fit. Now we will check them regularly and are carrying spares in our tool box.
