Front bottom shock bolt size?

[Apache]

Anyone know what thread it is, or have one handy they can measure the thread on?

[sledge]

you ain't snapped one have ya

[stormforce]

no he leaves that for me to do lol

[Apache]

No, but for some reason the drivers side nut loosens off over time, so I was gonna replace both sides with nylocs.

[sledge]

thought he was trying to nick your status lmao

[sledge]

i would of thought just get a new hi ten bolt and nyloc

[Apache]

Yeah, there is that possibility.

[sledge]

thats what i would of done mate

[Apache]

OK, I still need to know what the size is cos the battery in my digital caliper is dead. I'd guess at M10 or M12 with a fine pitch thread.

If no-one knows, it means I'll have to take the nut off and run a tap through, and its raining.

I went out and had a look; don't know the thread pitch, but it's an M16 x 80mm bolt.

[Apache]

M16?!?! Thats a LOT bigger than I thought! Dont remember the shock bush inserts being anywhere near that big.

Come to think of it I have an OEM shock in the shed... will report back shortly.

snigger,...................... ...........front bottom.

[Apache]

Oh shutttupppp!!!!

Good grief! It *is* M16! I would never have thought it was so big!

And I thought blokes always overestimated sizes...

[Albannach]

See? Told you!

They are M16 X 80 but that includes the head so just be aware of that. I would get the 1.25 pitch.
