:explosion does anyone have any idea what thread the three 12 point bolts are that holt the hub on. I screwed the head of them up pretty bad!!!!
Yes, it is that big at the threads. The 12 point head is definitely reduced, as is the shank where it passes through the knuckle bore. This is not a standard bolt.5-90 said:M12-1.75 is about a half-inch screw, are you sure? (I don't have the means to check at the moment.) Still, that seems awfully big.
M8 is closer to 5/16", and if you use a 13m/m socket to remove it, it's almost definitely an M8 screw. Even with the flanged heads, they still hold to standard for head size vice shank size, unless it's specified as a 'reduced head' or 'expanded head' (as I recall, neither would be needed for this application.)
