rear link
gday, i just pulled my ute down to the chassis and was looking at the rear suspension. when i noticed that the front link of the rear suspension was held in by a bolt with no nut. both sides were like this so i assumed that it must of been threaded plate. doesnt seem to be. there isnt enough bolt to fit a bolt to fit a nut on so im wondering if its been cut. if any1 knows how the setups spose to be please share,
cheers foxy


IF you post a pic of what you
IF you post a pic of what you are talking about would help.
I presume your talking about the bolt that goes thru the front leaf spring hanger , has broken off where the thread comes thru the hanger plate , this is fairly common , you need to knock the bolt out and then try and match up a bolt of the right size and length to replace it as they are meant to go right thru and have a nut on the other side ..
YOU can NO longer get these bolts from holden..

god made s@!t, ford made it move
they snap where the thread
they snap where the thread starts , it may not have been done up tight and has been moving over the years , often the bush in the spring has worn allowing the spring to move.
