Hi looking to replace rear hub nuts they are M10 Allen caps, I can't make out what grade they are due to corrosion but would guess they are high tensile 12.9. if I can't source high tensile is there a direct stainless steel replacement
thanks Dan

Hi Dan, I did changed mine on my Griff last year.
I got mine from a site called ACCU . I got 12.9
They do loads of fixings and you can order as little as one item.
I wouldn’t swap out for stainless.

TVRSW stock them:

At least you know they will fit.

I have found them a most helpful supplier.

As above, i would be very careful changing critical nuts/bolts to stainless.
