IRS front mounting bolts

rtusnake · 11-07-2006, 09:54 PM

Have read before about how all the irs cobras came with the 12mm bolts in the front mount from the factory. This was supposed to let some slop and increase wheelhop. Ford had a 14mm bolt you can put in to help but I found out from another board you can use 9/16 bolts and they are a tighter fit. I put them in tonight and they are a tight fit and believe thats the best bolt to go with. Just make sure you get a grade 8 bolt
