McMaster Carr.

Type machine component knobs in their search
 
Bought mine from McMaster Carr. A lot cheaper than OEM.
 
Anyone know the specs on them I believe there are 6 of them and different lengths I think 2 of them have 2 black handles 1 nut and 1 bolt
 
Virgil, My 2013 242LS has 4 knobs, Black plastic, and the threads are 1/2"-13 X 2" in length. Got the through McMastr Carr. I don't have the part# any longer.
Hope this helps, Papa
 
Thanks for the help I think u have a different tower. I believe ar240 and 242s are different style
 
Also look around here for the ar tower fix. Some links to longer bolts anda mod or two as @swatski found out that the tower can collapse on it's own will if not careful.
