Does anyone know an establishment where i can buy new cv bolts (socket head cap screws) for my sud ... (well 33 ones as my sud has outboard brakes)

They are m8 x 50mm with a 1.0 thread pitch and it is the latter is what is causing the problem.

I can buy them but i have to buy 100 of them and i feel that as i only need 12 maybe another 12 for my other sud.

A: Has anyone bought any, if so where from?

B: does anyone else need any that being the case i will buy 100 and sell them off to you

Thanks for your help Jim but the truth is no it isn't.

I did half of a fitting and turning apprenticeship and i know heaps of bolt places and they can get them but the don't want much to do with any less than say 150 of them.

I will never buy bolts from a hardware store unless it is for something like making a bench in the gargage but fastener people can be just as dodgey (oh yes i work for one of them too) and i too can buy them through work but not in small quantities.

That i find is a prob with Alfas they love their fine threads but anything m8 fine tends to be problematic

Bolts and fastners here in bendigo do have them we brought a box of them for our sud can never have enough of them spare

Hey matthew i'll drop in and see them and sort out that ill get them and post to you if you like, if it makes life bit easier
