Hi I am putting new rotors ,seals, bearings, pads, on my discovery td1 300 96 solid discs model and want to put new bolts to hold caliper on, is part number FTC3375 now SPY500090 the correct one. The bolts that were on it had 12 point head.:confused: as was told by landrover they should be 571910 which looks nothing like my bolt.;)

Just pull it out and put a hex bolt in, grade 8.8 would be ideal. I dont see why they would put a multi hex in there. Just my 2cents.
Also if that didnt persuade you, youd pay about a $1 a bolt this way, i dont even want to think about how much a genuine part would cost.

Umm the bolts are not your normal off the shelf bolt......the parallel unthreaded part is is quite different and would be a better fit.

I would source the correct bolts personally
