Can someone tell me what size/type these bolts that attach nose cone to the small upper brackets should be?
(Note pic is not my tractor)
TIA

5/16" UNF x 3/4" setscrew.
The original nose cones had a captive nut!

Many thanks Gerald. I wondered about the captive nuts. Hopefully mine are still there!
