I measured my tension rod screws and they came out to be 2 and 1/2", but these Gibraltar screws I found were 2 and 1/4". I measured from the bottom of the head to the tip like I saw you were supposed to measure.
Is there a 2 and 1/4" and 1 and 2 and 1/2" screw?

If I bought 15pks of these that would take care of my toms and snare and only cost $53.00 plus shipping.
That is not too bad.
Check this one out...

You should find what you need amidst this selection. Actually, about the same price. Buy the amount you need in the various sizes you require.
Don't forget to check on the little washers.
I found 6pks of the tension screws on Musician's friend for $3.19. That website you sent me to charges $4.50 for 6, so I think MF is the better way to go plus they offer FREE shipping!
I found a TON of parts that I am going to order from drummaker.com I am going to get my bass drums spurs, BD claws, lugs, and some other stuff there...that is a great site! I think some of you may have mentioned that.
I also decided to just buy a new Rocker snare for $130 off of MF as well. That will give me a NEW item to add to the kit and will save me the hassle from having to buy snares, strainer, hoops, lugs, screws, etc.
I did find the screws for the inside of the drums on MF as well, but they come out to around $22 for 100 or so.
Thanks for the link though my friend, keep 'em coming!
