$70 hey Pete, I got my last set out there and it was just over the $100 :eek:

I priced them about 2 months back. It was $6.50 or 7 per nut/bolt/washer.

thanks Carlos, not a bad idea. I dont need them (or afford them) just yet, but will do in a couple of months.

I dont mind spending a hundred smackers on HT bolts, was just looking for a cheaper yet just as strong alternative.

when ae you doing your BL mate, will help out of needed. I did my disco on my own so i aint that hard a job but a second set of hands is good ;)

Thinking maybe to get some in the next fortnight and do the lift then. I was going to post up a thread asking for helping hands, particularly those like you and Pete who have the knowledge.

I rang this afternoon and price m10 x 150 and they said $4.40 including nyloc.
Still seems expensive compared to HSVRangies' price.

Cheers

I think I'll follow up this lead on Monday.
