3377, Hardware changing on Plugs
Posted by niKKo, Thu Feb-28-08 03:41 PM
Hi guys, I recently bought a couple plugs off ebay. I was lured in by the paint jobs and sizes everything said "quality" even the eyes look awesome and huge. And I saw a video of them swimming, so I bought a couple. As you can see the eye screws that hold the 2 hooks and the line tie eye screw are so small. I was just changing out the split rings and noticed how easy it was to remove one of the eye screws, came out way to easy. So I want to know if there will be any problem if I replace them with bigger screw eyes. And what type of screw eyes should I look for? If I change them myself should I add any type of adhesive to the screw?
Or should I just contact the makers?
In the pic with the 2 plugs the one with the big screw eye is from a different maker, its just there as an example.
Thanks Guys!!
