Nuts and Bolts

I am looking at what nuts and bolts I will need. It looks like i need M10 X 65 bolts to get through the suspension brackets and give enough thread on the outside of the Nyloc to show it is properly fixed. 70s will be too long and 60s won't show any threads especially if I use washers. anyone know where ican get these on the net?

TIA

Use longer ones and cut them down.

That's what I did.

Use 70s. Is the extra 5mm really going to be that bad? Namrick are good but I have often paid more in postage that the cost of the hardware.

Find a local supplier. They are hard to track down but often have everything and are cheap. Look under fasteners and fixings in yellowpages.

Bentley's are good for stainless stuff...I'd also by long ones and cut them down, bit time consuming and a pain in the arse but means you can get things exactly how you want them, and avoids the old damn run out of 70's and 60's are too short!.....Oli.

Nicking them off Bentleys will take a fair bit of time and people will start to get suspicious when their expensive cars start falling to bits as soon as they get in :-)

LOL.....now thats a good idea! Maybe rolls royce would offer an even superior bolt! Except there does seem to be rather more Aston's around edinburgh I find at the moment...maybe they'd do??? Oli.
