NUTS!

What are the most common sizes of nuts & bolts needed for the Indy build and how many? It would be handy to have them ready for when the kit arrives.

Cheers in advance

Used M12x70 on wishbones and shocks about 20 of em and some shock bolts were shorter M12x50/60.
Every where else is a mixture of M10 M8 M6 at allsorts of length,best get a bucket load from nut and bolt suppliers.
Make sure they are high tensile steel 8.8 strength or higher (allen head bolts are higher strength)
Its really up to you really.
And remember load of washers and loads of nylocs.
Try www.screwfix.com they are a good price there and deliver,also namrick in brighton for odd imperial sizes if needed 01273 779864
