Just an FYI.

McMaster didn’t have the “exact” metric partially threaded bolt size for my half-shafts. And I wasn’t willing to pay $28 plus $12 shipping to ***dat on eBay for a set.

So when ordering my new diff mount, I asked MSA about availability of half-shaft bolts. While they don’t show them in their catalog, they got me bolts for $1.80 each and nuts for $.80 each. Much lower cost! (and I only had to buy how many I needed, not a whole set).

Just shows it does'nt hurt to ask...

If parts are sold new on eBay, that always means I can buy them from my local dealer for far less (often half), and pay no shipping.

careful with MSA nuts and bolts. make sure you ask them if they are from Nissan with the correct spec hardness. 1/2 the ones they give you (for other applications) are cheap ones from home depot...and are standard thread (not metric) to boot

The ones I got from MSA are the correct metric thread and grade.

Plus, I could just buy what was missing, not a whole set. The PO had replaced two with close SAE fasteners. I bought 4 to have a couple extras.

My local Nissan dealer is pleased to get the parts that I need as long as I provide the part numbers. They usually do not have in stock what I need, but get them through their system in 3 to 5 days depending upon where they are in the country (USA). Thus far I have had no problem getting the odds & ends that I need. Not cheap, but half the price of the guy on ebay..... no postage charges, either.
