I have just bought a pair of 500 calipers and carriers to do a front brake upgrade on my pre-cat Griff. I also have the 4 shims / spacers required but now need the four bolts, which need to be a bit longer. I have tried Ford but no joy. Anyone know where I can get some and what to ask for? Thanks.

Thanks, anyone have a standard 500 caliper bolt laying around that they can measure?

Hi there FActBV, as long as you can determine the correct length and thread size any good quality fixings supplier would be able to supply you! You must ask for hi-tensile bolts though! Fixing Stockists are often so much cheaper than automotive outlets or dealers? Regards, Pete
