Bracco Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Does anyone know what size bolt/thread is needed to measure end float of the front axles?

GBMUD Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 The bolts that hold the diff centre bearing caps in place are the correct thread. Perhaps UNC but more likely some novelty thread like Witworth or somesuch. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
