Hello from Under Down Under!
Why didn't you go and the bolt i told you to try you shmuck?? Lol
Because Im a schmuck! Haha
Nah, the bolt I got off a mate to try was soooo close to working that I though the guys in the bolt shop would have been able get me over the line with the correct ones. But alas, I was wrong!
I'll swap the ones I got for the 1/2" unc ones.

This still going com'on Lucas dragging the chain a bit lol
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
The reason the m12 bolt screwed in is coz its smaller and the 1.75 pitch is really close, hope ARB used all the same bolts lol coz then i'll look like a dick! Haha
Here the difference between a UNC 13 and a 1.75

tell me about it! I had the damn bar on the work ute when i picked it up from the painters and i didnt even think to call past the bolt shop then!
Hello from Under Down Under!
im beginning to think that the captive nuts are an "aftermarket" addition
Hello from Under Down Under!
Why is that mate? Isn't it a 1/2"UNC ??
havent tried the 1/2" unc yet. The bar had been modified for a winch and a 2" body lift and i havent seen any arb bars with the same captive nut setup (im still only guessing its an arb bar) and the weld jobs on the nuts look a little home made but im not sure how they'd look if done at arb. Gotta be close now though! ill swap my bolts for the unc ones. Bugger all open here saturday and nothing open sunday so monday it is!
