intex parts Always out of stock!!

[snakegrl]

Hi, I need help.
My 22' x52" has 5 of those plastic things broke that click the t-bar to the straight bar. I am considering drilling a hole and connecting the bars together with a bolt, washer and screws. Anyone else ever have this problem and have done something different to fix it?
I would just buy more but IT IS ALWAYS OUT OF STOCK! !!!
If I wait on them summer will come and go. Plus my kids are ready to swim. Thanks everyone!

I can give you an Australian website where they've usually got parts, they might post internationally and they're cheap.... And you could even call them in an hour, its 8.00am Tuesday morning here...

I had the same issue. I just kept checking their site each day. I wanted to replace all 38 of our pins, yesterday I checked again and they had them available. Now to keep checking for the seals.

Update: Bought screws, bolts, and washers. Easier and cheaper because no waiting for shipping and now I feel it will hold up better.

Here is a picture of the bolt in the frame. Just line up previous holes, drill through top part, and attach bolt.
