What are some bolts you guys find that are either missing/lost, break/strip and need replacing on our cars? Any common engine and/or tranny combination. I find some are, sr tranny bolts, ka valve cover bolts, cant think of much right now, kinda tired.
So yeah, bolts, discuss!

My tensioner bolt broke on my SR alternator, not a fun part to find, hard to order, took 2 weeks to get it brand new from japan and $25 :/

Thanks guys.
More asking of which bolts are commonly miss placed, lost, stripped, missing when buying items... etc etc. Like what i was saying sr tranny bolts, people might buy the engine then the tranny somewhere else and now don't have the correct size bolts to bolt up the tranny. Or ka valve cover bolts, you loose/ strip/ break one, you're kind of SOL cause they're shoulder bolts, unless you go to the Jyard. Same with maybe oil pan bolts, uh... fender bolts? sr acorn valve cover nuts, alternator mounting bolts (that long ass one), front cover bolts, who knows.

WHY IS THIS A THREAD???
Hey guys, how many times have you washed your car?
I've probably washed mine 342 times, but only vacuumed it 307.
I know, naughty me.
Let me make a new thread about it!
Any real car guy has bins and bins of misc nuts, bolts, brackets, washers, spacers, etc.
Shit like trans bolts aren't found at your local hardware store, thats why we have a WTB section. We don't need new threads for every single little jerk-off thing you noobs think of.
Hey guys! How many times have you rolled your windows down? Be honest, you probably use the drivers side more than the passengers side. Let me make a new thread about it!

Threaded rod from the hardware store, Lock 2 nuts together. bam. problem solved. OR go on the wtb section and i'm sure you could have found one for under $10

exactly! or here on the wtb section. We don't need new threads about every single little thing THAT ALREADY HAS BEEN DISCUSSED TO DEATH, OR ALREADY HAS A SOLUTION (like having a WTB section)
Is it just the holidays or are the fucking retarded threads coming on more quickly than usual???

Thanks for being a total dick. Go back to ziptied, k thnx. I actually have a reason for this, but why would you care? Im not looking to buy bolts and didn't mean this to be a random ass "noob" post. I have searched and just too much threads to go through.
But, all good. Please lock.
Don't need this to become another zilvia hate/flame thread.

are you fucking retarded? what reason could this thread possibly have? who gives a flying fuck what bolts may be missing when you buy something? if you are missing bolts, find the ones you need and buy them, its that simple
