U-joint bolt upgrades
82 driveshaft = 1/4inch 12 point OMFG please come out bolts
82 halfshaft = External Torx E10 WTF bolts
Id like to get away from these stock driveshaft/halfshaft bolts while keeping the OEM strap. I just used a cutoff wheel to get the last halfshaft bolt out - which ruined the $6 U-joint PITA strap.
Im going to Sears to buy the 1/4 inch 12 point deep socket tomorow for the driveshaft.
I swear there was an Allen head kit that one of the venders put together to replace all these as an upgrade, but I search for 2 hours tonight and came up with nothing from maybe 6-7 vendors.
Anyone have any guesses on this?
