Assuming they're for a sierra diff, bought mine from Westfield. Bought some from Ford but they were the wrong part despite them double checking...

Sierra is not a standard fastener its a fine pitch metric M10 from memory... Oh and yes HT is requirred IMHO. 12.9 should do it.

someone on here got some, they came in a box of 100. he might still have some left, if i could remember who it was...


MK chippy, thats who!

Burton Power advertise them but their's are quite dear. I went to a local supplier and got some but at 8.8 grade and I've been alright.
There seem to be two frames of mind on LCB. There's the people who'll use the same standard bolt as the manufacturer and there's the people that'll overkill on everything.
Both works (I think actually 8.8 is below grade but like I say I'm still here)

There's a place round here called FS Metric who can get any nut, bolt or whatever, with any thread, any length, I dont think there to expensive either.

Im getting some diff bolts made at some point fo mine.

I'll see if I can get some prices if you want

They are M10 x 1.0 thread at a tensile strength of 10.9, 18mm long

Got mine from the Ford dealer. Quite expensive though. Four prop bolts and six flywheel bolts came to about £17. I may still have the part numbers if you get stuck.

Sierra ones are ford part no. 6118344 they have the blue nyloc patches on them
were £1.14 each from a main dealer about 2 years ago.

cheers for the replies i'll take a trip to fords with the part number as it's nearest and see if they have some in stock.

Thanks!
