they are shaped like a banjo




Thanks guys...was seeing other types of bolts called banjo bolts with a small hole in them near the thread, and couldn't figure it out.

These pics make sense!

I was wrong, my pic is the banjo fitting,The bolt you saw is the banjo bolt it goes into the banjo fitting and ATF, oil or brake fluid flows out the little hole and around inside the fitting then on to where ever.

I stock & sell Deering's "Goodtime" Banjo's that are affordable USA made Banjo's. They're quite impressive and priced right. Really well made.

This is why they call me "Banjovie"

"Mean Mary" does quite a job with a Goodtime.

Looks like a nice rig dude. I've been a Bluegrass fan since the 70's I actually carried Bill Monroe's mandolin into a local bar for him on a icy December night. But the banjo player has always taken the brunt of the jokes at pickin' parties  :laugh:

Now that’s just plump ill willed and mean wymple 😡

Yup, I know. But if you play banjo you need thick skin AND a very good sense of humor. You can google up an endless supply of banjo jokes. All in good fun.
