GL-1000 valve adjuster - Help!

[Offcenter]

Hey guys, I need the threaded valve adjuster and the locking nut
for my '76 GL. (the part that screws into the rocker arm)
The only place that I've found that has them is a site
called "parts and more". These guys want FIFTEEN bucks
to ship a four dollar part that will fit in an envelope.
Does anyone have a screw and lock nut or know
where I can buy one with reasonable shipping?
(I hate being robbed and fifteen bucks to ship
a screw and nut is unconscionable. )
Thanks guys.

Might be able to just get a metric headless set screw and nut at a local hardware store.

Great option! I've found several replacement items this way.

It is definitely not your standard nut, the steel is a higher grade then a standard so choose wisely.

Lowes has a pretty good selection of hardened metric set screws in different lengths.

Thanks Dan. I'll check there when I get a chance.
