Rear drive sprocket bolts

Post by Trebor160 »

Hi - carrying on with the re-build but I seem to have mislaid the rear drive socket nuts & bolts (043292). Cant seem to find any stocks in the spares shop, would anyone one know what size & thread they are so I can substitute.
Thanks

Hi

Have you tried AMC Classic Spares or ACME Stainless?

They're BSCY - 1/4 or 5/16 " diameter - try an old bolt in the hole! The heads on the bolts are reduced in the A/F - the next spanner size down.
Length? measure and include a nut and required washers and 1 1/2 threads of the bolt should extend beyond the nut.
