    Do replacement dist rotors come with the three bolts?

    The last person to install the dist rotor stripped the everlasting jesus out of the bolts and I wrecked the bolts just to get it out.

    So yeah, if I order a replacement from like Blunttech or something, would it come with the little bolts?

        Get some from your local hardware store. There is nothing special about them.

          Both the Bosch and Bremi come with new bolts.

              Welllllllllll, they are long and brass. So they are kinda "special" :) no?

              But yes, they all come with the "bolts" - they have a little ring on them so if you're smart - you don't back them all the way out before you can remove the cap.

                  3Nm is the torque spec for those screws, which means don't reef on them.

                    Yeah I definitely wont...The last guy however didn't get the memo. The things are torqued to at least 40 ft-lb and are all stripped to hell. I have to pick up an easy out set just to get them out. That guy can go fornicate himself with an iron stick.

                      People seem to really over tighten these things
