Back action capstans? I'm currently using 10/24 x 1/2" hex 
head bolts. Total length about 15mm, low profile head so 
there's plenty of room to work with under the damper lever 
without having to cut the tray down much, leaving plenty of 
threads in the tray. These had a raised ridge around the head 
perimeter which I had to remove (pain in the butt), but they 
look like they'll work fine.
