These are new, and drilled for safety wire. The beauty is that you don't have to replace all the bolts, so if you want piece of mind that your CV joints will not come off, you can safety wire the bolts on. This will make it much easier.

Who needs em?

I'd like a set, which is what, 8?

Do you use them on the tranny side as well?

I'll locate the washers. The wire is cheap. I know you don't have to use a drilled on on each, so for those of us that want to just alternate you can save a few bucks. I'll round up the wire and the washers. May take a few days.

Truth is if you have the safety wire the washer really makes no difference, except on the ones that don't have it.

I'd feel better knowing ALL of mine were wired, with schnorrs underneath them too (at both, the tranny flanges and the stub axles). Cheap insurance (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

Wire them all! If you wire only a few, then that is what will be left if any of them come loose. Then, those may just likely break and take the CV with them. All or nothing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

So that would be 16 per car, so I need 32. When will these be ready to ship.

I need a full set (16). Are you drilling 2 holes or 4? I would prefer 4.

Each bolt is drilled with 2 holes, I'll have the washers figured out in another day. The wire is inbound and I'll be able to ship by Friday.

Why? If wired correctly, the orientation of the holes should not matter, no? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)



Mark, I am in for a set of 16 as well. I can send you back new 16 cores, too.

Is there any reason that used bolts can't be used as cores?

More hassle to clean up and the finish can be an issue. Easier to buy new ones at $1.60 each than mess with the old ones.
