Rear remote studs- Where to find?

[OldTrix]

I'm adding a second rear remote to my Mahindra 2665, and I will need longer studs to accommodate the two valves. It's an M10-1.25 stud, and I'm looking for a 195-200mm stud to fit. So far, McMaster, Graingers, Fastener mart have all been fails. Does anyone know a source for long metric studs?

If all else fails, you can always use all threaded rod.

yeah, saw that, was hoping to avoid threaded rod. Looking at 195mm bolts now, don't really need a double-ended stud to hold down the stack.

I found a couple places that sell a M10-1.25 x 195mm bolt, one on ebay the other online place called hammerhead racing. Wait and see what I get. McMaster and Grainger, were surprisingly useless, as were most online metric bolt shops, along with my loca. hardware store, auto parts store, and even the old Mahindra tractor dealership.

Any imported tractor dealer will do, not just your brand.

I'll have to hit up the Kubota dealer next time I'm over in NH. My local tractor dealer truly sucks. Couldn't be bothered to even look...

After a quick search, I found these bolts: (2) OEM Arctic Cat 1623-718 M10x1.25x200 PT HFH CL10.9 Y&Z Snowmobile Ski Bolt | eBay

Not sure it helps. Maybe going with that part number from Arctic Cat.

EDIT: They have a 190 mm long as well. This one have no cross hole drilled at the end. (2) OEM Arctic Cat 0423-451 M10x1.25x190 PT HFH CL10.9 Y&Z Snowmobile Cap Screw | eBay

You could get a longer bolt, cut the head off and pick a die of your liking (within reason) to create the missing thread.

What about a 200mm bolt and cut some off? Theres plenty of ways to do this and not need the specific bolt length.

The bolts I purchased at Hammerhead were some sort of snowmobile track bolt. Should work. I was hoping to find a hardened stud, similar to what I removed. Given the commonality of these tractors and rear remotes, I was surprised at the scarcity of viable parts. TYM/Mahindra/Kioti/JD, et al have to be buying them from someone...
