A set for me too, please... Steve

[DutchMike]

TonyIles kipper NickB777 Jase_MK MikeF R1 nur Quick & Dirty JamesGray Steve Crisp JamesGray, it will take a couple of weeks (I was promised 4weeks) to get them coated, so please bear in mind that it will probably take around 5 weeks before you will have them Mike

[DutchMike]

Allright, almost all the sets which I have ordered are taken now. Maybe there will be some more sets coming free once I know how many sets exactly each of you want. All the persons from the list, please let me know how many sets you really want. Till now, I have put you all down for two sets. I would recommend at least two sets for reasons which I already gave earlier, but you have to decide for yourself ofcourse. For the price: if the final bill which I receive will not give any big surprises, one set would be 8 pounds (or 12 euro's), excluding shipping (~3 pounds). If you want 2 sets or more I will make it 6 pounds per set, excluding shipping (~4 pounds for 2 sets). Please let me know how many sets you want, because if you want only 1 set, I can make someone else happy with the other one regards, Mike

so we saying £16 for 2 sets. BTW i've had a couple!

BTW i've had a couple!

indeed, 16pounds, but with a small reservation (maybe it would vary 1 pound in the end...), where did you learn maths?! You're the new Einstein!

For your second remark... errr.... can you please explain what you mean? (I'm only Dutch you see..... )

[JG]

mike, i meant that i'd had a couple of beers to drink, so could not be sure i could still count

[kipper]

Yep Mike, two sets for me. Just to check that's 16 bolts for approx. 16 pounds then Dave K

[DutchMike]

hi kipper, I am sorry to tell you that you are NOT the new Einstein.... One set contains 12 bolts, so the two sets will give you 24 bolts. ONE set contains: 2x M10x40 6x M10x50 2x M10x60 2x M10x70 So if you have two sets of this it will give you plenty of bolts to combine. For example, you will get 6 bolts of 50mm long, and they will fit at the front and at the rear. Again some examples: in an "extreme" case you could either do with ONE set: - 2x replace your rear axle bolts AND 1x your front axle bolts: rear axle: 6x M10x50 + 2x M10x60 (the 60mm will also fit in the rear hubs) front axle: 2x M10x40 (but only if you have removed some shims so you have sufficient bolt thread engaging the hub thread) + 2x M10x70. - 2x replace your front axle bolts AND 1x your rear axle bolts: front axle: 2x M10x50 + 2x M10x70 (you will have to shorten the bolts), camber insensitive. After that 2x M10x40 + 2x M10x60, but with more camber (less shims, ref. thread issue). rear axle: 4x M10x50 So with one set of bolts you can replace all your original bolts at least once, but probably more. If you have TWO sets you have even more flexibility. Hope you understand my puzzle?

AH! I see, the smiley I used shows that I unconsciously knew what you meant

[stevevx220]

Room for one more?

[DutchMike]

Room for one more?

I think you are lucky Steve, I have two sets left. But you want only one set?

hi kipper,
I am sorry to tell you that you are NOT the new Einstein.... 

One set contains 12 bolts, so the two sets will give you 24 bolts.

ONE set contains:
2x M10x40
6x M10x50
2x M10x60
2x M10x70


So if you have two sets of this it will give you plenty of bolts to combine.
For example, you will get 6 bolts of 50mm long, and they will fit at the front and at the rear.
Again some examples: in an "extreme" case you could either do with ONE set:

- 2x replace your rear axle bolts AND 1x your front axle bolts:
rear axle: 6x M10x50 + 2x M10x60 (the 60mm will also fit in the rear hubs)
front axle: 2x M10x40 (but only if you have removed some shims so you have sufficient bolt thread engaging the hub thread) + 2x M10x70.

- 2x replace your front axle bolts AND 1x your rear axle bolts:
front axle: 2x M10x50 + 2x M10x70 (you will have to shorten the bolts), camber insensitive. After that 2x M10x40 + 2x M10x60, but with more camber (less shims, ref. thread issue).
rear axle: 4x M10x50

So with one set of bolts you can replace all your original bolts at least once, but probably more.

If you have TWO sets you have even more flexibility.

Hope you understand my puzzle? 

Doh ! Major logic failure, that's what you get while trying to concentrate at work and and view this forum !

Good news, more bolts for your money
