Thanks for the advice about the free lower shafts. Many hunters that are tall have to set the shaft in the lowest hole and this makes for a loose shaft.

This is what good service is all about!

Replacing the spring clip with a 1/4 x 1.25 inch bolt with a wing nut tightens it right up if it's loose.

I bought a stainless steel bolt and wing nut. But anything will work. It's quick and cheap. Just pull out that spring clip and install the bolt.

I'm a little person so I don't have that problem...I'm glad to see that Garrett looks after their customers.

Thanks Khouse, called Garrett last week for my free lower shafts. Awesome customer service :D Once I get the them I'll try the steel bolt and wing nut.

Later Days ;)
