Rear strut mounting bolts.

Recommended Posts

Ok, you know the two bolts that hold the rear struts to the strut towers? Does anyone know the size of these bolts? I want to get some bolts to replace those that are just slightly longer in thread length so that I can properly bolt down my rear strut tower brace without having to worry about the thread being too short. I don't want the nuts to vibrate loose and fall off.

 

What is the size of the bolts and where can I get some that are just slightly longer?

Yeah you want to be cautious of the thread pitch of the bolts when you do that. I think the head of the bolt was 15mm but it's been over a year and I could be wrong. Just don't go trying to put a bolt in with a different thread, make sure they're the same.

I believe pep boys has grade 8 bolts. If you can take one there, they have some nuts you can thread into and find the right size and pitch.
