Re: Caliper to Knuckle Retainer Bolt Posted by DnstrDan [Email] (#1361) [Profile/Gallery] (more from DnstrDan) on Sat, 24 Oct 2015 17:39:36 In Reply to: Re: Caliper to Knuckle Retainer Bolt, Gary P, Sat, 24 Oct 2015 16:25:00 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Gary, neither the hardware nor the auto parts store I visited carried this bolt. So, no-go. I suppose I could spend a whole day caravanning all stores within a 20 mile radius of my home, but I won't.
It makes me wonder whether they intentionally choose to not carry certain high-strength fasteners for liability reasons. FWIW, I ran into the same issue when I attempted to source strut tower nuts. The closest NAPA store is about 27 miles urban round trip.
It would be a great project for TSN if someone were to take the laboring oar of building a comprehensive parts cross-reference list: SAAB P/N to other makes/models as well as vendor-sourced parts. In searching through this board, others have suggested it too.
