type off bolts between axle and diff ?
Hi,
I tried to mount the axle on the Sierra differential with standard M10 bolts.
When i was mounting them it feld tike the bolts were going in really hard.
I didn't trust it so inspectected one bolt when i took it out again and  whaaa
the new bolt was looking really bad.
What kind of bolt do i have to use between a Sierra diif and axle ?
Sorry for my bad English.
Thanks, Marco

IIRC, they are M10, but 1mm thread pitch (M10 FINE), not 1.5mm thread pitch like normal bolts.

If you can't get any, they're easy to get here and postage isn't much.

Got mine from a local fixings place, two quid for a dozen was all they charged 
You couldn't pwn your way out of a wet paper bag, with "PWN ME!!" written on it, from the "pwned take-away" which originally contained one
portion of chicken tikka pwnsala and the obligatory free pwnpadom.

Might be an idea to get a tap and run it into the threads in the drive flange before you get and fit new bolts, just to make sure that you
haven't damaged the threads in the drive flange aswell.
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

They're M10x1x18mm.
Ford part number:- P F6118344 182582 screw @ 76p each plus VAT.
As long as they're 8.8 grade they'll be OK from any stockist though.
Cheers

Ah.....good point. Sorry Marco!
If it's any consolation, they were like rocking horse poo around here when I was after some anyway :-)))
Looks like Pat's offer is the best bet
