It's not an Allen bolt, it's an 8mm "triple square" twelve point socket. That is, unless someone along the way replaced the correct bolts with standard Allen bolts. That would not be fun to extract if they stripped. Hence, twelve points.
You can buy one from Pelican here: http://www.pelicanparts.com/More_Info/PEL-...2%20in.%20drive But you also get them from NAPA or a local Beetle shop. quote name='John1180' date='Apr 17 2013, 10:49 PM' post='1851659'] Need to pull CV half shafts, what size cap head Allen do I need? [/quote] |
