Thought i would be organised today and started to clean and eases off the 2 bolts holding the fulcrum unit to the arms.The nuts are basicaly round due to rust so i am going to just cut them off. Question what size and length are they so i can get replacements sorted before i do .Cheers
By the way i have done a search and not found an answer.
 
Just replaced my A-frame today :)

I had a spare A frame so replaced all bushes and ball joint + bought all new nuts/bolts from ebay.

The hardest part I found was the single nut what holds the joint into the axle :( had to use a chissel and snap the nut off.

Then the second problem I had was tightening the new nut on as the bleeding fuel tank got in the way!!! used a blunt chissel to nock the nut tight after I could no longer do it with the spanner :)

Ride is super now, feels stiff like it should do. But then again I have replaced my trailing arms with new H/D ones and bushes ect.

When ever you do these jobs I always put new bolts/nuts on as they only cost a few £
