I also found that the Horst bolts were particularly stubborn due to the Leung thread locked with blue locktite.

If you find out what size they are, let me know. Brion at amp doesn't know either (emailed me back today) so hopefully we can solve the mystery.

Just had a look at mine:

Grub screws at BB are 3/32" AK:

Horst Link: 5/32" AK + 5/16" AF spanner on the inside of the newer ones:

Or just 7/64" AK :shock: on the inside on the older ones:

Hope that helps.

All the best,

Tried 1/8" imperial key on the horst link bolts, thought i had a fit but then the bolt hole slid as soon as i put pressure on it.

None of the " keys i have would fit in the pivot bolts.

Here´s a pic of my horst link bolt


Why the hell not use a normal Xmm allen key?? Gaahh
frustrating as f.u.k.c

It is indeed, and why my one remains 98% finished and has done for a year.

I will replace them with metric stuff once i get them out.....
Im very open to suggestions..

one thought was to file down a line and then use a screwdriver to loosen it.. good or bad idea?
