Driveshaft bolts

Hello guys, where's the best place to get a set of the 6 driveshaft bolts? Not sure I can spot them on Heath's website.
Typically, of course, one shaft went in OK and the other connected up to the diff OK but the hub connection was very bad and wouldn't tighten.
Clean the threads out, presumably it was dirt stopping them going in cleanly.Typically, of course, one shaft went in OK and the other connected up to the diff OK but the hub connection was very bad and wouldn't tighten.
Any decent bolt supplier will supply them, they're not hard to find. I got my last set from a chap on ebay for a couple of quid.
It's critical that you get high tensile 12.9 or equivalent, they need to be bolts rather than machine screws, and of course the dimensions need to be right. You should find they're M8 x 50mm, although the later models with the bigger CVs are up to M10 x 60mm. If you get a choice, go for Torx heads for the extra torque rating, but you'll probably Allen bolts are easier to get hold of.
