Front brake caliper carrier bolts

Scott61 · May 28, 2017

Hi all, I've been fitting new front discs to my 2002 TD4, and found that a couple of the carrier bolts were rounded off a bit due to someone having a go at them in the past. The existing bolts are M12 with a flanged head, but I can't find a part number for them, and the ones in the microcat seem to be normal bolts with a spring washer.

Is it the caliper pin bolt? That's the one with the flange. Item 8 on the micro cat page, part no SYG000010 and from brit car they are a whopping £11!

That looks like the right bolt, but that page is different from the actual set-up on my van, lol ! I don't have the shield on mine. I was going to change all 4 bolts, which will be expensive !!

Yeah that's what I thought, think I may be careful when I do mine!

I use these. They are the same, without the silly price tag.

You have the right to cancel that order. Distance selling regs.
