Chassis Nut and Bolt Sizes Print
Iain Jones of Chassis 33 Motorsport has kindley shared this information with us, even though it is from his Chimeara they share the same chassis so should be the same. Also may I take this oppertunity to wish Iain Good Luck for the 2006 Racing season

One thing worth noting the torques only apply to the UNF threads, if a bolt with a UNC is used the torque will have to vary to get the same stretch on the bolt to ensure there is sufficient load on the thread so the nut doesn't come undone.
