Default FleaBay Banjo Bolt Kits.

So I'm putting a new engine into my Miata or selling my whole set up period... or both...

Anyways, I need a new banjo bolt in a bad way.

Anyone have any objections to either of these bolt kits?

i am currently using them. no complaints except that the 14mm one uses a shorter than preferred bolt.

my only comment would be that the banjo bolt itself in the 2nd link looks tough to tighten with no hex or indentation for a tool LOL.


stay away from aluminum ebay bolts/fittings

My problem is I overtightened/sheared my Greddy factory bolt and have been looking for a replacement since. ANYTHING. Simpler the better obviously, but I'm not fiscally averse to buying say 6 fittings to do the same job of the two.

Prevents killing the bolt by overtightening like I did the original I guess. lol
