    Flex Disc question

    So as many of you know i broke the flex disc in my car. However, i also snapped the bolts.. Question i am asking is could i go to the local ACE and get some nuts and bolts or do i have to order them in from the dealer. I have been to many sites and no one seems to carry them... Help please

    Dealer will probably be cheaper. I think the bolts are either 10.9 or 12.9

      Are they weighted? Or just random bolts?

        I'm amazed you were able to shear the bolts.
        I believe the factory bolts/nuts are high grade.

          Im pretty sure i only broke one. When i pushed the car back from where it broke i found one and a half bolts. So do you think that i can get "high grade" bolts from ace?

            No, but you might find them at a NAPA dealer.
            The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

              Pelican parts carries the bolts.

                you could sub with a ace item for short term, however if you have broken one your flex disc may be very questionable and perhaps its time to remove and inspect and replace more items that are broken. For one of those to SHEAR, something is not right.

                  It's a $2 bolt if that from a DEALER, just get the correct size/length/grade bolt.
