Rear Arb Bolt size

[Graeme]

Any idea what the bolt size is for each end of the arb, I can't locate the originals so though I'd buy some new bzp ones, also are the nuts plain type or nylocks?

Thanks in advance Graeme

nuts are plain with a thin washer. as for bolt i will try and check in a few mins when iv got spanners out. glad iv gone to check for you iv got brake fluid leaking down inside of wheel and tyre :(

[Mike]

13mm IIRC?

There plain nuts but Id put nylocks on anyway for the couple of pennys they cost.

[Graeme]

Iirc there either 17mm or 19mm which means either m10 or m12, just wanted some to confirm for me please

[mk1nova_rich]

M10 FINE so 1.25 pitch instead of 1.5 :thumb: 17mm heads and 30mm length

[Mike]

^nah im sure the bolt head size isnt that big?? (altho, in my defence Ive been nova'less since September lol)

[Graeme]

Cheers Rich, I can live with standard pitch, just needed to know the thickness and length +rep

[mk1nova_rich]

No problems mate :d

[vaughanmc]

Stainless ARB bolts are pimpin. I had them on my disc beam.

Get some stainless dome headed bolts for the beam mounts too, you can see them through the arch... Nice touch!

[Graeme]

What size are the beam mount ones Craig? Are you sure stainless is up to the job?

[Benn]

Stainless isn't as strong, wouldn't use them on the beam mount. ARB yes.

[Graeme]

Agreed Benn I just wonder what Mr. Green had used

[Benn]

I have cap headed M10 on my rarb.
