• Ball joint mounting bolts size by Settings on 31 Aug, 2010 04:13
• I snapped all three of the ball joint bolts in the mounting plate    Mangled them pretty bad by the time I got them out.
  Does anyone know diameter and thread of the OEM bolts?
  
  Thanks

• Think I found them...
  
  VW part number N10127706
  Hex Bolt M8x26   
  
  Unless anyone knows, I'll assume standard pitch 1.25. I see the JIS bolts are 1.0
  Usually I would just buy the nuts and bolts together but the mounting plate has the nuts fastened to it already.
