how do you identify bolt sizes from the service manual? (1 Viewer)

[jamief]

I'm reading the factory service manual and see that the bolts all have numbers beside them in the component diagram. as an example the front sway bar endlink bolt is 52 (530,38) and the bolts that hold the swaybar bracket to the frame are 18 (185,13) What I can't figure out is what those numbers mean and can I identify the size of the bolt from them somehow? It's not a part number as far as I can tell as 9011910765 is the part number for the endlink bolt.

Those are torque values. You'd have to look at a parts diagram such as on Partsouq to find part numbers. If you're just after bolt sizes, guess 10/12/14/17/19 and go from there.

thanks. I was hoping they'd list lengths somewhere so I could just pick up some replacements and have them ready for when I get in there. Guess I'll have to actually crawl under there and look.

If you want to go deep... I think your PN bolt will be 65mm in length...
