Need help from Suntour RD Guru's
I bought this NOS Suntour XC RD (1985-86) in a moment of to many Coronas and an ebay weakness.
It is missing the attachment bolt. I pulled one from the Cyclone RD on my early tri-bike but I need to find one of these bolts somewhere.
I know the bolt from a Cyclone (pictured) fits but what other Suntour RD's shared this bolt so I can widen my search.
The ARX I have had a much shorther bolt so I know that won't fit.
Anyone have a ruined RD with the bolt?

What's the length of the bolt you're looking for? I have a bin full of Shimano and SunTour derailleurs and would be happy to check.

The bolt is 26.49mm total length.
The unthreaded portion is 18.16mm and the threads are 6mm.
The washers are .20mm and .07mm but I think there are assorted sizes used to shim the RD side play.
