Aloha-
I have a TransPac setup that I added a stainless steel backplate and single tank adapter to. No bolts/washers/wing nuts came with it, so I had to go to the hardware store and buy some. To allow for the thickness of the plate, adapter, Venture Wing and TP (sans back pad) I'm using 1-3/4" SS bolts, with washers and wing nuts.
Problem: when donning or removing the rig, the bolts often snag on my wetsuit and I now have a few holes from this!!! Does Dive Rite carry the correct sized bolts or do they recommend a certain length? Does anyone else have a similar experience?
Mahalo for your advice...
