Under Belly Plastic
Hello All
Not sure which forum to put this thread...
I need to get to the inside/Bottom of my camper by removing a section of the UnderBelly plastic.
The plastic is held on by screws which tap into the main frame.
The screws are a special style head with a "one way/ridges" design for a special style socket.
Question:
How do I get these special style screws out?
2014 Forest River 360 PDEK
Thanks for the help

10 years in lowes hardware department. One way screw? my store had a small selection of the screws and the driver to work with them. no one will know what your talking about. Need to find the one person in the store who has been around forever that knows where everything is.

Figures always changing stuff....If it were mine, I'd drill the heads off, drill new holes, and use hex head screws
Techs are just gonna cut access holes...

No pictures until I get back out at the ranch next weekend...will send some then.
The heads look like a miniture gear type of thing, with the "gear teeth" at a 90 degree, sticking straight up on the head. Hard to describe

Nope...
And not like the other picture Ford Idaho sent in.
Probably just take some BigAss Vise Grips to them, and be done with it

Dremel with a cut off wheel, cut a slot and remove with a flat tip screwdriver.
Any of these?

When I was looking at one I was going to have to fix the floor I asked someone at Forest River and they said to just use a hammer and chisel and cut them off.
When ready to reinstall just drill and use new screws.

Is it this fastener talked about in the following linked thread by any chance:
http://www.forestriverforums.com/for...tml#post395426
It's called a Scrulox 8, double square, or Robertson double square.
