HD alignment bolts @ Supermiata
 
New 90-05 Miata HD alignment bolts exclusively from Supermiata.


These 10.9 grade fasteners are direct replacements for the OEM bolts. They can be torqued to 110lbs. Zinc and black oxide coated for corrosion resistance and low friction. Also available individually.

Dammit man, I’m not scheduled to replace my alignment bolts for a while yet, but this feels like one of those “buy it while it’s available” situations.

Y’all really do need to set up a direct deposit pathway for Orange addicts like me…

Great idea!

Is 110lbs enough to ensure no clunk? Can they be reused at that torque.

We recommend 110 for the front lower control arm forward location on cars running 200tw or softer tires. If owners choose to go past that recommendation, that is their prerogative.

In our shop we always had to over torque the OEM bolts in hopes of keeping them in place. But that meant they were effectively single use. Our bolts will tolerate more than the OEM bolts.

This is brilliant. Will be nabbing a couple of these with my next order.

I used some friction paste left over from a bike project on the contact surface between the eccentrics on my car, but still had to overtorque the leading FLCA bolts to keep them from shifting. Glad you guys brought these to market.

For what it's worth, while we do want to encourage you to buy sooner rather than later, we bought thousands of these. They'll be a regular stocking item.

As Mazda parts prices continue to go up it gives us room to re-do some of the popular consumable items with a superior product at a lower price. First Sport motor mounts, now these. Next: Hubs.

The fact that these are basically the same price as what I last paid for stock ones is seriously impressive. Well done guys!

Another great Miata part from SPM. Great timing, too, as I'm about to swap all my front suspension over to the new subframe for a K swap. :likecat:

Order placed...
