[QUOTE="Disturbed, post: 452748, member: 23732"] I can see that but when you are saying but the side skirts are only in single shear, meaning that the pin, or bolt in this case, is only supported on one side which allows the skirt to twist, I would bet it tore the bolt through the UHMW to rip it off. In the jet foot it is supported on both sides and it cant really twist. Because of how the grate bars are mounted it cant be twisted that far. Not saying you are wrong, I am probably just trying to talk myself into it. I bought the material to make new 304 stainless steel grates and pins for the jet foot last night, it cost all of $6 for the material. I will probably just make new stainless ones tonight. [/QUOTE]
