Hub Bolts
These are also 10.9 (as per OEM), They are also Zinc plated.
Includes 3 bolts per corner front and back (big M12 bolts)
£15 for the set including postage

Shocks and Wishbones
These are 8.8 as per the orginals. They are also Zinc plated
Includes all the bolts, nuts and washers for the shocks
Includes all the bolts, nuts ans washers for the wishbones, including the fine pitch bolt on the rear suspension, including the very odd 85mm front M10. I could probably replace this with a 90 (and some kits do) but if Lotus went to the effort, so will I.
Includes the bolts for the front top suspension mounting brackets.
Also includes new ball joint nuts
£30 including postage

I will have a set of Hub bolts and a set of Shocks and Wishbones if any are left thumbsup

I've split up the kit as follows

Hub Carrier Bolts
These are 10.9. Crucially, they are 10.9 material rather than a 12.9 with a weaker head (which have been offered to me by some wholesale suppliers). They are also Zinc plated. Sourced from Europe
Includes 2 bolts per corner front and back
£10 for the set including postage
For a general representation item 5 from the picture below
I'm going to have quite a few sets



Yup, 50 sets I wager. Minimum order and need to come in from Poland as 10.9 are impossible to buy off the shelf in the UK.

Good work JG.

Seeing as the hub carrier bolts are a serviceable item and therefore replaced pretty regularly, i'm not going to zinc plate them. The lead time is too long. Everything else, including the high tensile hub bolts will be zinc plated. :)
