Bomar Hatch on CD31

Post by Dean Abramson »

Which model of Bomar hatch is used as the forward one on the CD31?

Does anyone know a good place to buy an extension arm for whatever model that is?

Thanks in advance.

I believe this is what you are referring to. Be slow and careful removing the two hex machine mounting screws. I used a breaker bar to have a better feel for how much torque I was applying. I replaced a couple arms several years ago. Apply Tefgel or Super Lube to the threads when you reattach to stave off galling.
