On the water now and lost a bolt that connects my steering cable to the port jet. We still have some steering and we just zip tied it for a temp fix. Anyone know what size bolt is needed with a thrust vector wake installed. I was hoping to find a parts list for my TVW but havent found one yet. I'd love to get it fixed for an afternoon session.

Thanks for any help.
 
6mmx25 is about right.

For today I would grab a 1/4 x 1 to 1.5 to get something in there.

@RobbieO found these bolts from McMaster Carr to fit perfectly.

Awesome thanks. Went with the 1/4" x 1.5" machine screw with a lock nut. Fits well and we've got good steering again. Thanks for the help guys!
