Same with me . . . I get them from Jegs.

I just looked them up in a Jeg cat, $11.00 each, does that sound a little high? Walt

Re: pressure plate bolts
 

Walt: While it doesn't say so I think that is the price for 6?

Re: pressure plate bolts
 

That sounds a little more better, Thanks Krylon. Walt

Walt, I have made them out of grade 8 bolts. They were 1 1/2 long with a unthreaded section just below the head, shorten them to the ford bolt size and make sure they don't bottom out. Use the ford bolts as a pattern. A new hacksaw blade is a big help, Chuck S.

The 48 and older wheel, the pressure plate holds in the wheel are not drilled all the way through, so, it's hard to find a bolt with the correct length shoulder and cut the thread to length. I don't know why Ford didn't drill the holes all the way through like the did in the 8BA wheel. Walt
