Horseshoe plates

Hi all - I have these ready to fit but would like to replace the bolts when I do. I appreciate they should be of a certain strength, 10.9 is what I've been told but with out taking the rear end apart to look what size are they????

Are they 14 or 13mm (max) bolts? Does anyone know off hand?
Cheers

cant check at min as etka isnt working due to formatting hard drive on other computer :'( but there either m14 or m16 but they a metric fine thread and are difficult to get hold of. there are 2x long with nuts and 2x short that screw into the hub casting per side. if i remember correctly either heritage or justkampers sell them new for £1,000,000 each

 

Why replace them? I doubt you'll source better quality ones.

 

Cheers guys - take your point re: replacing if they are that expensive !! Just thought best to do it if everything apart
Thanks for thr help

I've taken quite afew apart and these bolts have always been good. You should be fine with them.

 

this is what i bought for mine

They're big, hefty M14s, so should be fine...just give 'em a good clean-up!

 

Just cleaned everything up and reused the old bolts and they were as good as new once cleaned up ! have been on a couple of years now and have been fine
