Urgent Advice Needed - Drop Links Bolt Size

Post by Xmun7 »

I am about to purchase some custom made adjustable drop links with spherical bearings on the ends (as opposed to the factory ones apart from the fact that since i am running on coilovers they are being shot only too often thanks to our road).

I need to know the type of bolt and length, is it an M10?

Please advise as i have no idea on bolt sizes

It's an M10 thread on the drop links. Not sure about the length. About 30mm?

If you're wondering about AF sizes (for spanners) that's a bit harder.
The original ones had (IIRC) 15mm AF nuts whereas the replacement ones had bigger nuts of 17mm AF.

Thanks for that, about the AF Sizes, that shouldnt be a problem, the length from what i remember 30 cm sounds reasonable, as in as long as they are not too short right?
