I will soon be ready to bolt all of my suspension back on, for the last time
Although I have plenty of bolts, unfortunately, they are set bolts & I personaly, don't think it too wise to use them !!
Most of you will be aware, if fixings are bought in larger quantitys, it tends to work out a lot cheaper
Have gauged some prices & here's what I have come up with.
Full suspension & diff mounting Kit
2, M12 X 260mm bolts ( Rear uprights )
2, M12 X 200mm bolts ( Diff mounts )
20, M12 X 75mm bolts ( Wishbones, rear camber adjusters & Lower rear shock mounts )
6, M12 X 60mm bolts ( Front shocks & rear upper shocks )
30 M12 Nyloc nuts, Type p, 14mm thick
60 M12 Flat washers ( One for each side of the bolt ) Form A 24mm od, 2.5mm thick
60 M12 Black plastic nut covers
I have costed each kit at about £22.50 - £25 Max, dependent on postage cost.
To make full use of buying full boxes of the longer bolts ( This is where the bulk of the cost is ), I will need to find enough interest to shift 10 sets .
I am quite happy to organise a group buy as it may help others avoid the headache of finding the long bolts & paying through the nose by buying small quantitys
Any thoughts welcome.
Edit
Just to add, the bolts will be High Tensile 8.8 grade & all bolts, nuts & washers will be Bright Zinc Plated

If any of you are confused about the nut covers, please read further down the thread.
I have found a cheaper source for most of the fixings in addition to a low cost source of M12 plastic nut covers .... Looks as if I can include nut covers without increasing the kit price
