Title: Diff retaining u bolts
Post by: fcute on September 18, 2019, 08:31:12 PM
Has anyone replaced the diff retaining U bolts? Mine measure up as exactly 70mm wide but I can only seem to purchase 75mm wide, do they pull in?

Thanks Dave

 Hi Dave.  I have a set here that I took off another car. They measure exactly 70mm internally. I also have the bottom plates & rubber retaining plates that secure the springs. They are in good condition, however, a light sand blast & powder coat might be the way to go. If you are interested, I can send a photo.  Kevin.

Thanks for the offer I have gone for 75mm.

Update, I ended getting 70mm U bolts made up from West Coast Suspensions in Bayswater WA. Great  to deal with and reasonably priced.
