With vat and postage they are about £4 each! Fine if you are putting together a reasonable order...but not on their own! Not that we Scots are mean, or anything...just canny!

thats my thinking on it lol

It's one of the places where the size of the bolt isn't critical 'cos the bushes are retained between the shock and the chassis tube. A length of studding would do at a pinch, the biggest diameter you can fit into the chassis tube.

be careful on tensile strength, best to take bolt to local fasteners place it will be at least 8.8 if not 10.9
