Upper Ball Joint Bolt

Post by crazymilk »

Please could you tell me where I can get the Hex/Allen Key Bolt that attaches the front upper ball joint to the upper wishbone on my 1985 T25?
There are two that attached the wishbone to the upper ball joint

I had probs with one of mine (stripped thread in new balloint) and had to replace it with a bolt and locking nut. Just an idea in case you're stuck. That said, I'm sure those bolts are readily available in the bolt market. Must be high tensile but providing you know length you should be able to find them online easy enough.
