rusted on plates(type 44)

[Joseph Rae]

I found a nylon set of screws that clip into square holes, I used them on my
4000,  and will use them on my 5k when the time approaches. you need to cut
the holes alittle bigger but they work great otherwise
I think I bought them at Kmart, but I am sure that sucks/als auto supply has
50 different kinds.
