Technical Rear arm bushes: Retaining Bolts

[james92056]

Hi Guys,

I am going to replace the rear arm bushes on the 899cc Sei, I have bought the bushes, but new retaining bolts did not come with them, which I though was poor.

Can anyone recommend a source of new retaining bolts?

Thanks!

Whats wrong with your existing bolts?

The previous owner get their garage to "tighten up" the bolts to try to get rid of the noises they're making (rumbles / clunking) - the heads are looking like they've rounded off and I might have to grind them off

Not cheap, but quick delivery, i think is worth it for the convenience.

i guess is worth asking if they will sell the bolt only.

As Ming says, eurocarcare.net probably your best bet unless there's a really, really good fastener supplier near you (shouldered length and all that). But high tensile bolts are pretty expensive.

Were the bushes to come with new bolts it would put the price up catastrophically for most of us.

Last ones i bought came with bolts... Original Birth brand from Shop4Parts, i don't need them anymore and they are in the classifieds - I'm not going to separate the bushes and bolts though for this exact reason, you need both to change them properly.. Might be cheaper than buying new bolts on there own though...

PM me if you are interested in buying the set
