Bolts list say they are M10's but I don't think they are. They look more like UNF.

The real trick is not to lose the barstewards in the first place.

Can anyone confirm what they are? They need Locktite too by the sounds of it.

they're a metric fine thread, M10 x 1.0 i think. definately need threadlok, originals are blue which is a type of threadlok coating used by Ford (and probably many others)saves time and mistakes on the assembly line.

Thanks guys, the "1.0" in M10 x 1.0 is the thread pitch. Standard pitch is 1.25, thus making 1.0 metric fine.

There's a good nut and bolt supplier in Newbury so I should be able to pick 4 up.

Cheers
