Hi all, once again I'm turning to this amazing group for help !
Yesterday I received my front hub assemblies ready to replace them, so got the front wheels off and found the three bolts holding the assemblies to the knuckle were not only seized but extremely corroded and then rounded when I tried loosening them ( I've abandoned this job for now). The replacement hubs did not come with new bolts and as I'm in the uk and imported them from the states I don't really want to be ringing and ordering some to wait ages for them to arrive as my front bearings are fubar, so knowledgeable people can anyone tell me what thread and length these 3 bolts are so I can go get some before the gas axe and extractors are used to get them out as I'm going to destroy the originals and can't leave the truck on axle stands as it's my daily driver, cheers,
Jim
