Many thanks for that, much appreciated! They are extremely pricey for what they are, does anyone know the thread sizes? 1/2" most of them look?

They are all imperial, and all different Diam and lengths. They are expensive (for what they are) from SH, but he has done all the hard work, and you'll get the correct bolts - and for suspension components where the bolts fit through a bush, the correct Diam is crucial.

Look like a bargain to me (having seen the rip off prices for bolts in B&Q recently - building a tree house).

Yep I went to the self service check out - the machine kept shouting remove this, bag this, rescan that, call for help etc etc... eventually as I was half way through the scanning the bolts (actually coach screws) had come to £77! So I was expecting maybe £150 in total! So left the bolts (oops without putting them back) and went to Wickes. £40 all in.

Screwfix is good for bolts too, have a good range of stainless and normal mild steel bolts.
