Hey Everyone

Sorted my spacer trouble, got some nice ones made up by an engineer.... another problem....

My standard AMG bolts are 12mm bolts with a 40mm shaft which is pretty damn long.... I need a 45mm shaft for them to be safe... I cannot find these anywhere!!

Are there any mercs that had this size bolt or longer?

This is very disheartening :(

You might need a machine shop to trim shank to 45mm size.

$18 to ship to Kiwi land.

...and the German version:

There are plenty of companies that do it in germany and switzerland, but none of them have that same rounded finish that you get from the stealership, they all look like a standard chromed bolt that you'd find on any other car...
I know Eibach makes them, but as far as i know, it comes as part of a kit with their spacers
