Abstract
An improved leveling bolt adapted to be received within an aperture defined by a panel is provided. The leveling bolt includes a threaded shaft, a base, and an obstruction. The base is joined to a first end of the threaded shaft. The obstruction is proximal to a second end of the threaded shaft and is adapted to engage the panel at the aperture during reversal of the threaded shaft from the aperture to prevent full withdrawal of the leveling bolt.
