Does anyone know what the thread pitch of the differential bolts is? I would like to replace them when I do a diff install next week, and since Mini does not sell them seperately, I woudl like to have them in my hand before I start.

Having the length as well would be convenient.

I think that they are 12x1.0, 20-25mm in length.

Thanks in advance.

 

There's 10 red loctited bolts and they're grade 12.9. Just restore the threads in the crown wheel, red loctite the bolts up and tourque them up in steps! I think I went up to 65 ft-lbs.

Thanks. I am good with the torque spec, but I figure that since is the 4th time that I am re-using them, I wanted to replace them.

Doing someone else's LSD this weekend, so I found that they are 10x1.25x25mm long.

Thanks again.
