Part identification needed - Land Rovers Only

thecmg · 03-23-2007, 10:19 PM

Wondering if someone can help me id a part number for some bolts on my wheel. Went to new pads and rotors put on and discovered something bizarre. Once you take of the wheel there are about 5 or 6 bolts (about 3 in. long w/ a six-sided head) that hold a cylinder thingy by the rotor. On my front wheels, I was missing one entire bolt on one side and on that same side about 3 of the bolts were very loose. On the other side, one bolt was in but snapped in half. OMG! To say the least, not safe driving conditions.

I've been on several part sites and can't seem to find what these bolts are called and the part number. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thx!

Hmmm. Once you remove the alloy wheel you're looking at the drive member which is held to the hub by five bolts. Is that the "cylinder thingy" you're talking about.

OMG, Not those damn six sided bolts. Well, that pretty much narrows it down.
Are you talking about the drive flange bolts or the bolts holding the brake calipers on? Perhaps you could be a bit more specific.

Take a picture.... they will be the best way to help identify the prob. Even if it's with just a camera phone.

What year is this truck? I assume it's a Range Rover given that the question is posted on the Range Rover board but you never know. If the truck is a Range Rover Classic with ABS the ONLY "six sided bolts" are on the drive member. The bolts holding the hub to the rotor, caliper or even the swivel ball to the axle casing are all those evil twelve sided bolts. You know, the ones that always send the uninitiated off to the parts store for that special tool to complete the job.

What year is your truck? Where are you? If as Paul suggested, Terry hinted at, and I presume you are talking about the drive flange bolts, I have a few you can have. (just dismantled an axel) Post up a pic, and let us know.
