Thread: diagonal support braces bolt sizes please?

I need the size for the (4) lower ones that attach to the radiator support and the (2) upper ones that are larger and fit into the strut towers

Also the (4) "clam shell" bracket bolts that are visible, not the ones inside the radiator support bar

I am trying to get these in stainless or even socket-head type to clean up the engine bay

Ive taken them to the parts store trying to match them up best I can, and I cant get them either in stainless or at all

Thanks in advance



PS

Also the bolts to hold the coil packs in place. The l26 ones I saved are too thick , no idea where the l67 ones went

Did you check the bolt size thread? Oh nevermind that just says what size the head is. And I assume you are looking for like the thread pitch and length.

honestly - no lemme look for it real quick - nope just says the socket size needed to remove them

In case anyone else is wondering

I think the top bolts , the ones in the strut towers are
M10x40mm 1.50 pitch?
I think the ones in the radiator support are
M8x25 1.25 pitch?

yup

l67 and l36 coil bolts are 5 and 4mm

i just drill and tap em to 10-32 and use much stronger nicer and cheaper stainless philips hardware

Thanks again James!

im not too sure about the drill/tap skills I may or may not have. Just looking for a quick fix to replace the rusty hex head bolts.
Even the supercharger bolts like the vacuum tree and pcv cover.

Next mission - new coil pack bolts

it's probably cheaper to buy a 10-32 tap and bolts then it is to buy 6 4 millimeter bolts that are long enough

You sir have a good point - looking into getting that today after work
