Arb end plate is the same as a ford wheel bolt M12x1.5. Torsion bars are a standard Size thread M8x1.25 ________________________________________ www.bridgecraftmotorsport.co.uk |

Peugeot bolts are m12x1.25, so don't use a cyclone wheel bolt.________________________________________ www.bridgecraftmotorsport.co.uk |

Hmmm maybe i didn't use a cyclone wheel bolt on reflection.... its a couple of years since i removed one, i'll go with the general concesus of opinion and hold my hands up and say i could be wrong on this one.  ________________________________________ Team Running Engine again!Team Negative Camber!

Also depends how siezed the end plate is on the ARB end splines. Mine was stuck so hard that when i wound the ford wheel bolt in, it stripped the threads in the end plate......Happy times. ________________________________________ 1999 Astor Grey GTi-6 OEM+ (now gone...)2004 Aegean Blue 206 GTi 180 (also gone...) 2006 Skoda Fabia vRS in Sprint Yellow honestly3k wrote: Do you wrestle for a living matt?

Don't use a bolt with the wrong pitch of thread. It'll probably work - but one or both of the threads will be weakened/semi stripped. And no one likes weakened wheel bolt threads... ________________________________________ Feelin so fly like a Gti6 Team >160,000mi  |
