Dumb question re: recurve limb parts
Hi - I have ILF limbs for a recurve riser. I've lot the bolt down by the notch on the end where the limb inserts into the riser.

Are these bolts universal? I'm guessing yes since they are ILF limbs but not sure. If not, then I'm not sure I know what to look for as replacement.

Where would I buy these bolts? Looks like the limbs are out of date. Do limbs age? Should I just replace the limbs (they weren't used much but are about 5-7 years old now).

Thanks. I think those bolts, while aptly named, are installed on the riser to hold the limbs.

Poking around, I "think" this is what I need. Bolts with a depressible plunger at the end. So hard to find this w/o know the name - there is not mention of "limb" anywhere for the part name. What I don't know is whether these parts are universal for all ILF limbs - same diameter, length, etc. Will it fit my limbs even though they aren't W&W?

Are you looking for the lower bolts on the riser, that the slotted end of the limbs pair with? I believe those are called Tiller Bolts

No, I'm looking for bolts w/ the depressible plunger that are installed on the limb where it attaches to the riser.

In case anyone was wondering, these things are NOT universal. The threading was okay but the detent pin was too short for my bushing.
