Where to find high-tensile metric bolts
I'm looking to replace some broken bolts in my 9-bolt differential case.
According to the markings on the head, I need:
8mm x 50mm, grade 12.9, 1.25 thread, hex flange bolt
I've looked all over the internet and I can't seem to find a distributor who sells these. I have found socket head bolts and lots of 10.9 grade bolts, but nothing that matches the specs above.
Does anyone know where I can buy some of these or if there is a suitable alternative?
Thanks!

Re: Where to find high-tensile metric bolts
You're right! I did a search on the thirdgen boards and found some posts where guys have used ARP bolts to assemble the carrier.
I just checked the ARP web site and they sell bolts that are nominally rated at 180,000 PSI, which is just a bit higher than the 177,000 PSI for a 12.9 bolt.
Thanks for the tip!
