If you don't find the missing ones just measure up the originals that you have and visit your local bolt dealer:thumb:

Well most don't. I guess you are just lucky. And aren't they metric fine high tensile for the flywheel?

But like I said don't waste your time you xan get a set cheap enough without needing to waste time driving round in the hope someone may have some

Yes I think they are fine metric, 1.5mm pitch? And yes I am lucky but only in that respect:D

1.25 I think.

If you nut and bolt place do weird and wonderful have you got their details?

I'm after a 1.25xm12 metric fine 12.9!

There's a link above for correct bolts.

Thank you :thumb:

Why are people recommending he goes elsewhere?
Flywheel bolts are fairly important things and I don't think it's a good idea to f**k around with them if the right ones are available for silly money.
To the OP, don't be clever, be smart. Buy the right part.

Try and read the thread again :thumb:

And to be honest if I knew somewhere else did them I'd recommend that. A bolt is a bolt. It's not exactly rocket science. But most nut and bolt places don't do 12.9 metric fine m12x1.25 as I already pointed out....

I'm which case you would realise that I am talking about getting a hard to find bolt in a specific grade and sit for myself as wrx300 mentioned he knew a place to get them.

You have based your comment on an assumption that I was referring to you.
Perhaps it's you that should read the thread. ;)

Get back in your box TT, it's not rough enough for you to play yet :D

Either way, it's a nut and bolt. Not some black magic... I would recommend the same if I hadn't had the experience of trying to get some metric fine bolts recently!

And perhaps you should be clearer in your replies if aiming it at a specific poster 😉

We wouldn't want to make Todger cry now so let's all cuddle and be friends.....

Blue by You 28 May 2016 05:30 PM

Well actually if we're back on topic there aren't any nuts involved in flywheel to crank mounting, but I'm up for a cuddle anyway :D

fat-thomas 28 May 2016 05:33 PM

a bolt is a bolt but given where it is and how hard it is to rectify if it breaks id be inclined to spend a little extra time and money sourcing oem ones.

OEM ones are just the same as you get online or down at the merchants. As long as you use the correct grade etc it is no different.

12.9 grade high tensile bolts are the same no matter where they come from. As long as you know the pitch, thread, length etc it's easy enough to match up.

Because they are busy arguing who is clever than the other.

In your specific application a 'normal' style HT bolt might suffice, but the OP is asking where he can get suitable replacement bolts from and some of the advice offered here is just misleading, especially if, unlike yourself, you may have little or no knowldge of fastener technology.
Of course a 12.9 bolt will have sufficient shear strength to do the job.
But this isn't about just a matter of obtaining a piece of metal with a thread on.

As can be seen from the picture in the link I posted the OEM flywheel bolts have a flanged head that don't require a washer to fit. They also have a plain shank offering a better location through the flywheel.

That is a different thing to a common or garden high tensile bolt from Joe Blogs that will most probably be just a regular plain hexagon headed set screw that should be fitted with a washer. Not just any old plain washer, but a hardened washer.

In which case a flywheel bolt really isn't just a bolt like any other.

Just saying :thumb:

Useful tool to have anyway if he was unsuccessful.
