Bolts

[joe-motion]

Any recommendations for nut and bolt suppliers who won't cost the earth other than the recommendations in the bolt list section ? Will be putting the back end back together shortly and will be looking at getting new bolts ordered this week. Also need recommendations for the driveshaft bolts, seen a few comments on torx alternatives however interested in what other people have used
.

I used this place to source fasteners, cheaper than most I think and good quality stuff www.margnor.co.uk

I don't know whether they're already listed, but I've found Namrick good in the past.

I used namrick in the past to when rebuilding mine. They were able to supply pretty much everything I required in one go from what I recall.

I used this supplier Johnston & Bulman years ago.

Thanks for that, nearly sorted now. I am just after a recommendation now for the 12 x CV joint Torx screws or equivalent M8 x 50mm. Ive seen a bit of chatter for alternatives, what do people recommend? Also the 4 no high strength trailing arm pivots, has anyone recently ordered these, certainly dont want to get the wrong ones!?

Make sure they're 12.9 or better from a reputable supplier. FWIW I'd suggest using hex (rather than torx) but make sure you use a really good quality key. I also suggest using breakable threadlock, just to rule out the possibility of them working loose.

I used these for the rear trailing arm bolts:
