I use real nice serrated flange bolts that are 1-1/4" long, but I use 1/8" thick washers under the caliper mounting bolts. That gets you the ideal 1-1/8" length. 1-1/8" bolts are hard to find at a good price.
|
Ace is the place to rape your face. Like 15$ for all the hardware. Wilco farm is my favorite. You buy grade 8 by the lb.
|
I found 1.25" non serated flange bolts for 1.15 compared to ace's $1.70 shenanigans.
I bought all four, they have no more. Fckin' fantastic. 100 Grade 8 Hex Head Flange Bolts 3 8 16 x 1 1 4 Cap Screw | eBay lolol |
I think I bought a set of driveshaft bolts nuts and washers for like $.88 at Wilco.
|
At least you realized you bought 400. I would have bought 4 thinking they were 23 each
|
Oh, no, I bought all four of the $1.15 ones at the doitbest place. I don't need 100 lol
|
For all of you small garaged jealous people. I have now emptied 2 pickup loads of stuff (8 foot bed) into my garage. And still have room for the truck and Miata. And extra space.
|
You go to hell, sir!
Mostly because I know EXACTLY how big that pickup actually is. I don't think my dentside would fit in my garage if it were empty. |
With a 4 inch lift on it.
<br />Only thing that makes me sad is that this place isn't long term :( wish I could have bought a place like it |
Well, either I suck at it or the tse lines I got were shit. One of the tapers cracked, and I'm shit out of luck. Now I have to bleed stock calipers, fucking fuck.
Be gentle as hell with those fuckers. |
Tapers? The an-npt fittings?
|
Yeah, the 3an taper seat cracked. The entire line is toast, the adapter in the caliper is alright.
|
Shit :( over tightening?

Yeah, I've never broke an AN fitting like this before. I think the brake line was defective, because I wasn't on it all that hard, just a little stubby 11mm wrench, nothing crazy.

Did you shoot Emilio an email?
|
More awesome landlord news. Has a 3 bay shop, 2 post lift. Bridgeport mill, 2 lathes, and is a machinist by trade. Has an at truck from the 50s and we already went for a ride in it. Literally life idol lol.
