I know that winter is coming and that means winterizing, that means the top deck will have to be removed for the first time. I was just wonder how hard the screws are to strip and if you do strip them are they made specially for the sparks (custom size) or can you pick them of at the store.

Thanks

They should be pretty hard to strip, They aren't even torqued down very much. Just make sure you are using the right sized bit and you should be fine. The oval washers sound like they break pretty easily though, You might want to buy the stainless ones from Riva.

K, I just want to make sure that I am not going to have any problems and have to buy new screws right away, but washers shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks for the response
