I probably can find one for you. Which bolt exactly do you need?

Posted by: sk8kat1 Mar 22 2007, 10:12 AM

the big ones that hold the caliper to the trailing arm

M12 X 1.5 X 30 grade 12 Hex head screw. Probably not available at the local hardware. I have one if you want to come and get it. You may get lucky at the auto parts store but I have doubts they will have one.

Holy Crap Mikey,

Sorry, but for some reason I didn't see your 2 week old PM until now. Sorry Mang.

I guess you don't need help getting the engine in any more. Of course I have a caliper bolt. I'm even going to be in Boone tommorow. If I can pull one off easily tonight, I will stick it in your mail box. If not, you may have to come out and get it over the weekend.

Yup pretty rare bolt. unless you have a couple parts cars laying around. What I want is same bolt 35 - 40 mm long. Probably have to go online for that. But I gots a bunch of stock caliper bolts.

Hi Joe.

I couldn't find your bolts in Hex head but I found them in a Socket Head Cap Screw. These guys have lots of nice metric stuff.
