    1962 Rocker Panel bottom screws

    Hoping to gain some clarity.

    What has most often been seen as the bolt and headmark that fastens the bottom of the rockers for 62?


    I have noticed various headmarks including offset E"s, triangles with 3 grade marks, and others that have recessed hex heads. I have also heard of "L's". What is typical?



    Furthermore, i have also noticed many that have the configuration of a washer on the exterior of the rocker bottom. The aim shows a flat washer, lock washer and nut on the interior with no flat washer on the exterior of the rocker. Just little confused on configuration in observing other cars.

    Any help clarifying would be great, thanks in advance

    I've seen E's, A's and no head markings, but never a recessed head on original 62's, but lets wait and see what the Rev has to say on the matter.

      Doug, I should of probably been more descriptive, Like you E's........The E's you have seen, were they offset E's on a flat hex and what about the A's?

        I am out of pocket, but will take pics of originals if no one chimes in.

            I looked trough my 1/4 - 20 stash and here is what i came up with, i don't think you would have a problem with any of these as long as you have a set,

              Doug, outstanding! thank you for the insight......E are what i have......

              Have a thought on the nut and washer......meaning......aim configuration versus what has been seen?

              Aim states flat washer, L washer, Nut on inside of rocker but I have never seen this in my limited exposure..

              again thank you for the effort sharing...

                I'm cool with flat washer, L washer, Nut on the fiberglass side, no washers on the rocker side of course.
