Was doing a brake job on a 2002 GEM with drum brakes. When I was putting on the brake line for the front brakes, I managed to break the banjo bolt. Gem part number 0522-00170. I’ve tried just about every auto parts store near me and no one has a direct replacement.
Anyone have any idea where I can get a replacement? even nevaccessories doesn’t carry them. They have just about everything else for the drum brakes but not the bolts. Is there a cross reference for a current polaris part?
Thanks in advance!

@JarJarJava have an email out to them and will call tomorrow. Was hoping there was some easily cross-referenceable part that someone might know about. Trying my local Polaris dealer too.
Guess I’ve just gotten spoiled by the world of Amazon prime 😉

No doubt. I’m sure that Grainger or McMaster-Carr or maybe even a local hydraulic shop could sell you the part, if we knew the size and thread pitch.

I just changed over to a disc brake kit on my 2000 four seater. I can’t remember if this bolt was a leftover part of not. If so I will be more than happy to send it to you. @grantwest @LithiumGods @Inwo@Old_Houseboater do you recall if this was a leftover when you did a disc brake conversion?

@bundcur I did the disk brake conversion on my 2000 and it’s a leftover part. I sent it back with the core though to Nevaccessories for the deposit… although I don’t think I had to include the brake line, banjo bolt, etc. At the time, I was thinking… when will I ever need these in the future 😉
I’m going to give NevAcc a call when they open up to see if they have any extras…
If you happen to have them and don’t need them, would be a huge help to me. This is for my 2002 flip experiment I started back in November. Was supposed to be a few week project but here we are 6 months later. HA. this one bolt is holding me up from getting it back together, listed, and out of the garage… and then I can start on my lithium project on the 2000 where I have the disk brakes installed.
Thanks everyone for helping me out!

I’m all set… used [adhuntr.com](http://adhuntr.com) and found someone that parts these old GEMs out in phoenix. Turns out same guys I’ve bought a bunch of other parts from on ebay (user clvend). $15 with shipping included.
Thank you SO much to everyone for the willingness to help out!

You should measure a banjo bolt and select in the catalog of metal products. Not required to search for OEM spare parts

up here… even better, nevaccessories has a ton of them. They sold it to me for basically nothing. Paid more in shipping.
