quote: No it wouldn't. Obviously they're M12s for a reason but on stuff like this it's all about factor of safety so they'll be bigger than they physically need to be. an M10 eye bolt can safely lift 250kg. From a purely theoretical point of view you could definetely replace one of those with an M10 quite safely. Look in that ebay ad, it says it's a 'smaller bolt than standard'. What would be smaller than M12 but bigger than M10 that would make that much of a difference? You and your buddy ojc love to talk utter pish sometimes. I'd like to see you try to snap an M10 meaning to do it, then you'd see. | |

I can imagine the kind of thing you mean mate, fair enough. Just thought they were charging you £20 for a couple of M10x50s or something! | |

also they will be the correct tensile for the application. | |

quote: They have a lobe on them like a cam, so that pushes on the hub, and then has a washer with a lug on it to lock it in the shock. Bit hard to explain, But I haven't got a pic to show ya. | |

quote: tbh i just want to know i have the right thing holding my suspension together, wouldnt want to come up with my own thing for it to be unsafe for the sake of £20. | |

Fucking hell mate, save yourself £20 and just get an M10 with a spreader washer on it. That's all that is, a smaller bolt to replace the top strut>hub bolt | |
