Hi mate, you should be able to get a bolt quite easily,have you got any tool shops or engineering firms near you? If you've got one you take along to match up they've prob got one in stock,would have to be high tensile steel i would think(usaully black colour).

I know, you would think so, but its pretty unique with the shoulder and the thread pitch!! Been to our local bolt specialist and he says nope, so just hoping someone has a second hand one...

Has noone done an upgrade to later calipers and still got hte old bolts?

Pleeeeeeeeeease!!!!! 8)

I have a bolt but it's gonna cost £120 on the plus side you get 3 other bolts, 2 calipers, discs, master cylinder, spindles, rear hubs...

May be a little over the top for what we need amigo!!! :lol:

Know what your saying tho, man i can't believe it either... The mad thing is i did an early to late conversion for someone last year and thought i'll keep them bolts cuz they look hard to get hold of and one day i'll probably need them!!

Errr..now where did i put them..... tits

Ah well... Anyone elso got a memory or a bolt!

Just Kampers advertise a caliper bolt for their late bay caliper fitting kit,part no J12625,it's a m12x1.5x40mm 10.9g bolt.This maybe a little bit long as it has to go through their spacer but you may be able to cut it down :?: :?:
