looking for rare metric bolts

[flyerdan]

For that kind of money, it might be worth investigating whether it's possible to punch them out to a M16x1.5 or more available thread. A drill, tap and all bolts should be far less than half of the extra fines.

 

[Jrasband]

Yeah that is what I am thinking

Or drill/tap to 9/16"?

Need m14 x 1.25 structural bolts. I need 8 at 50 mm and 8 @ 75 mm, does anyone know where I can find them? Search engine is not turning up much except euro wheel lug bolts. This is to replace the bolts that mount the front frame and loader to the engine block on my LS XG3032

As Dodge Man asked in a previous post, have you tried the LS website? They have a parts lookup if you enter the loader model number, assuming it's an LS loader.

Original bolts will be too short. I guess he could get lucky and find some that will accommodate the plate he added but it won't be the original length.

Call the president of the USA and ask why the heck we ain’t on the metric system like most of the world is.

That was Carter's job and he dropped the ball.

I looked for threaded rod too.

Try www.belmetric.com

belmetric may work! For some reason they did not come up in my search.

LS parts may work, half of the factory bolts where I did not plate are longer so I may be able to order 16 of them. Thanks everyone for your input, I will give update when I know more.

Isn't Belmetric the $45/bolt place?

Is it possible to use allthread cut to size and nuts for your application ?

Web Parts Catalog.

See where the factory frame goes from double to single - that is where it cracked and the single plate I doubled to match the front. So I should be able to get 16 of those id #10.

Thanks everyone!

You may want to triple check your bolt thread pitch.

I checked the parts catalog and they list M14x1.5 which it a lot easier to find. M14x1.25 is pretty much an odd size and most likely a specialty thread of some sorts.

Here are some, they are actually a flanged bolt;

Those are 12mm...not the 14mm the OP needs.

M14 x 1.25 is very close to 9/16-18. It is about .011" smaller and the pitch is about .006" finer. You could probably get away with tapping 9/16-18. In fact, are you sure that's not what it is? An M14 x 1.25 bolt might thread into a 9/16-18 hole just because it is smaller. If it was my tractor I would be tempted.

Actually Jimmy Carter got the ball rolling but Ronald Regan put a stop to it, I sure don’t know why.

Glad he did.

Because he could only count to 9.
