big ives Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 western many thanks so i suppose any M10 hi-tensile bolt would do????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 only if the length is correct, plus the LR item has a plain shank to take the loading a fully threaded bolt [machine screw] won't be as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big ives Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 ok western that makes sence, i have these type on my rig they have the plain shank and are rated 10.9 should be strong enough for my drive flanges, didnt want to carry 20 home and find out they where no good............................many thanks Ivan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 10.9 HT bolts will be more than adequete for the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 please pardon me butting in, but while this is fresh on your mind I wanted to ask if you think it's okay to drive on four of those bolts, right front wheel on a D-110? I broke one off when reassembling the wheel ( I was using an air ratchet and got out of hand) and it will be a while before I can get the correct tap and drill imported. I am hoping four of them are strong enough. Max speed limit here is 40 mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 the standard bolts are 8.8 high tensile, so they will be up to the job, just check the 4 remaining bolts are tight before use, how much of the broken bolt is left in the hub ? if there is some bolt shank left, after removing the drive member you might be able to unscrew the remains of the broken bolt.

CwazyWabbit Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Welding a washer to the remains of the bolt can also be quite effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
