Changing the wishbones...new bolts?

[Tigger]

Putting a new pair of wishbones with powerflex bushes on the car next week, do I need to change the bolts for the arms too?

Renault say they are no longer available :S

If you take your old bolt to Bearing Man they should be able to find a match for it.

Why would you need to change the bolts ? I re used the old bolts on my ph1

 

[Tigger]

That's good enough for me!

Anyone know wat the torque setting is for the wishbones and gearbox mount?

 

[crombie1]

Till it's tight is my setting. Just before they snap

i think they are 90nm off the top of my head the wishbones that is. The bolts are avaliable i bought some a few month back with new nylocs. Not cheap though, think it was something around £70 for bolts and nylocs
