HI guys
Does anyone know what the actual size of the Drive flange to disc bolts? Is it metric ?

Also the caliper to hub bolts, I know they are imperial but dont people use metric bolts for them? If this is the case shouldnt i go and buy some metric ones? and once again I need to know what size they are :lol:

its not very xciting I know but the bolt shop is miles away and I would prefer to only do it once and no have to lugg am my crap up to the counter.

Thanks everyone

I was told to widen the holes in the caliper, so theirfore I only need a 3/8 bolt and I will be away?

The holes in the metro caliper for mounting them to the hub are bigger than 3/8 inch.
Widening them would make things worse.
:D

No, they're metric.
10 or 12mm I don't remember.
