Model T Ford Forum: Forum 2012: Hub bolts?
Top of pagePrevious messageNext messageBottom of page Link to this message  By Matthew David Maiers on Monday, August 13, 2012 - 11:42 pm:

the rear wheels on my T were redone many years ago and had the hub bolts replaced with standard carriage bolts.

the heads on these are much larger than the originals and they must be weaker because a few of them have broke.

what im wondering is if the reproduction hub bolts are of the same style and strength as the originals or if they are just carriage bolts.

The ones made by R.V. Anderson are what you want. They're correct.

Thanks for the recommendation, Steve. Our bolts are Grade 5 (unmarked), full body diameter, rolled thread, with a small diameter, high crowned head. They have at least twice the tensile strength of the originals. I can sell you the bolts, but if you need the nuts too, buy the whole set from one of the vendors. They can buy the nuts for a lot less than I can.

They are also available in the length for the Rocky Mountain brake setups.
