I am looking for a source for the 2-56 rivet nuts that people use to remove the trucks with plastic pins and replace them with screw on trucks. I remember this idea from a post way back around 2014. I have used these rivet nuts and they work great ! The original poster indicated they were hard to find in 2-56 but he found some on eBay. Well, that seller no longer exists. Anyone know where I can get them?

Here is the original thread discussing this cool modification

I bought a batch back then and they worked great. Ran out about a year ago and have been searching for them ever since with no luck.

Look for blind nuts. The official term.
