i have a set of shimano 600 cranks with one key release crank bolts. only the drive side crank has the complete setup though. the other crank has the original bolt, but is missing the portion that drives the crank off the spindle. does anybody have any resources where i can replace the left crank bolt, or get the missing parts of it? thanks.

Three possibilities for you:
1. Call your LBS and see if they have the part or can get it quickly.
2. Loose Screws has Dura Ace Crankarm cap and washers. I don't know if they will fit your 600 crank though. Send them an email and ask about compatibility.

3. FSA makes an aftermarket self-extracting bolt. Colorado Cyclist carries them. I'm sure other vendors have them, too.
