    Front Tension Rod Bolts

    I need 4 Front Tension Rod Bolts (M12x40 I think) + nylocs for my new tension rods which weren't supplied with any

    I guess these would need to be high tensile but am not sure of exactly what spec they should be for this application.

    Have sent messages to a few specialists but they're probably not too interested as I only want 4 hence no replies

    Can anyone enlighten me as to exactly what type of bolt I should be looking for?

    Cheers...

    Are they M12x40's?

    BTW - did you have a chance to look at the wheel nuts?
