was retorqueing the head as the headgasket has been changed and ive done about 1000 ks ... and i'v realised that i have stripped 2 rocker bolts( 1st one was fine the 2nd and 3rd were gone and well havent got to the 4th one yet. these are the ones to be tensioned to 25lb. anyone in brissy got a set of these i can buy. pretty grim ask as everyones probably away. just i'm gonna be stuck with no wheels over the next couple of day s if i can't sort this .... thats going to suk. worth a shot anyway.

i doubt any stores will stock these locally ? supercheap and co ?
fiji.

Will supercrap have a set of these studs (as bolts however) on their shelves in hi tensile UNC? Not the ideal but will do the job as they are only being torqued up to 25 lbs...

Enough to get you out of a bind I think.
