Hi All,

As above, does anyone have 4 diff bolts please?

Ford Sierra diff

Cheers,
Steve

Can I use standard bolts from local nut/bolt place and loctite? If so what size ate they? I assume 12.9?

What bolts where?
Diff mounting bolts?
Diff cover bolts?
Drive shaft to diff bolts?

I always go to a Ford parts department first (Lookers in Chelmsford) they usually have what I want and are cheap and will sell singles.

^^ or diff to propshaft - the little M10x1.0 ones (grade 10.9)
I've got a spare set of these if needed (proper ones off a donor car)

the driveshaft ones are just M8x50 cap heads (Grade 12.9) - you cna get them from any bolt supplier
(that way you don't get the torx head ones )

Got mine from the local ford parts department, that way you know they are correct thread, length and most important strength.
