Hi, I'm on doing a chassis refurb and just started the rebuild, I managed with some searching to find a list of bolt sizes for wishbones. I looked on griffs, S and Serbs and they all have a wiki at the top of the page of all relevant bolts so I thought I would make a list of bolts for the wishbones as a reference to others. These are what I've used so far and some are different to the list I found, but if someone has used different sizes then please add them
Front top wishbone 3"- 7/16"x4
Front lower wishbone 3"-7/16"x2
Front lower wishbone 5"-7/16" x2
Top ball joint to wishbone 3"-7/16"x4
Front shocker 3"-1/2x4
Rear lower wishbone 3"-7/16x2
Rear lower wishbone 5"-7/16x2
Rear top wishbone 3"-7/16x2
Rear top wishbone 41/2"-1/2x2
Rear bottom shocker 31/2-1/2x2
Rear upright 3"-7/16x6
Diff mount bolts
31/2"-7/16x1
7"-7/16x2
So that's a total of,
3"-7/16x20
5"-7/16x4
3"-1/2x4
41/2-1/2x2
31/2-1/2x2
Forgot to mention all bolts are UNF.
At the moment I've got a 3" long bolt in the bottom front shocker but I think I might try a 21/2"
Also the list I found when searching used 31/2" in the rear upright but I used 3" and it was still a full nut
Hope this is of help,
Graeme

Good work
Would you mind if I added it to the following from my body-off blog, https://chimrebuild.wordpress.com/12-reference/ ?
I bought a complete wishbone/suspension bolt kit so never actually measured the stuff that came off.

I actually was going to put in that post about all other bolts are listed on your blog, a very good readWould you mind if I added it to the following from my body-off blog, https://chimrebuild.wordpress.com/12-reference/ ?
