We don't sell the 3/4 x 5-1/2 inch grade 5 bolts needed to lock out a Sidewinder. The only way you will be able to get the correct bolts would be to go to your local hardware store and get them there.

This will save you time as you won't have to wait for the bolts to get shipped as they will be readily available at your local hardware store.

Take a look at the instructions I have linked on page 6 for more on the lock out feature.
