thread on sierra diff flange
givemethebighammer - 20/2/04 at 10:13 PM

Anyone know what the thread is for the four bolts that hold the prop to the diff flange on a sierra diff ? Mine looks like it could do with a tap running though it to clean up the threads.

thanks

ahhh may have put this in the wrong section, well it is Friday night, end of hard week etc...zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Wow, I was expecting some odd imperial thread, I even have a couple of M8 1.25 taps so I won't even have to buy one specially !!!

thanks

anyone know where i might get 4 M8x1.25 bolts? preferably online

Givemethebighammer,

I can confirm that the bolts are definitaly M10x1 10.9 jobbies. (I had to buy some longer ones to accomodate a spacer plate between the diff and driveshaft)

Regards,
Sebastiaan

While on the subject of METRIC bolts. Screwfix sell HT metric bolts really cheaply!

indeed, screwfix are very handy, but they don't seem to sell all that many odd sized bolts that get used in cars.

great for nuts and washers though
