Can anyone tell me what thread bolts I need for the propshaft to diff flange bolts on an English axle ? I need to nip down the bolt shop , but I dont have a pattern............
I think they are UNF ?

Thought they were M10 fine?

Edit: had a closer look at mine, reckon they're M10x1, couldn't tell you for sure though, my eyes and callipers aren't accurate enough.

Sure I saw them on the Burton Power website but can't remember what they were.
Cheers, Pewe

I'm pretty sure they are imperial. Mine were marked with 3 lines on top like an Imperial bolt. Plus, the head was not a standard size - it was a loose fit with a 14mm spanner off the top of my head!

Annoyingly, I had a brand new spare set at home you could have, but lost one bolt the other day....!

You mean you don't?

It's a handy place to keep them, always within reach, and they act as a rudimentary crash helmet.

If English=Escort Mk2, then they are M10x1 (they are on mine, anyway!)
