Avid Strut to Fuselage attach bolt

[William777 0]

Can someone tell me the bolt used on the lift strut to fuselage attach?  I'm placing a order with acs and don't know what bolt is used there.   Believe it is a an5 bolt.  

 

Thanks

I think the rear spar bolts are AN5-30 and the pin in the front is AN395-97 but danged if I could find mention of the lower bolt.

Thanks for the response.   That is the same problem I'm finding in my manual.

My shipping list for the MK IV lists AN5-17 for that bolt, I will try to get out to the plane later today and verify that.

Thanks for that.  An5-17 it is then.

AN 5 is 5/16.  That seems small.

I checked this on the plane and AN5-17 is correct good to know the shipper is correct.

tcj,  Kitfox uses a 3/8" bolt there, but the fitting is different than the Avids.
