Title: Part number help
Post by: 03Jeeper on August 20, 2011, 01:51:52 PM
Hey guys, I need the part number for the nuts/bolts for the 4 nuts/bolts that hold the axle shaft, backing plate, etc on the diff.
It's a D44 out of an 05 unlimited if that helps.

I phoned Varsity but the guy couldn't find the part number to the nuts, unless it all comes in a package which I would assume. He doesn't know if they come together.

Thanks for the clear up.

They are bolts. You go to a bolt store and get new ones.

What does it say on the head? Or show us a pic of the numbers/symbols on the head.

i'm pretty sure they do have one flat side so that once seated it doesn't spin while you tighten the nut.  probably could grind down a normal bolt to fit if in a pinch.  whats wrong with those ones??

One side of the bolt is flat, I could easily grind them down. I was going to the dealership anyways so I thought I could just pick these up.

FSM states they're one time use.

Go ahead and reuse them. The rest of us do. So does the dealer.

The one time use is probably refering to the nuts. They look like stover's which won't stay as tight as they would the first time they were tightened. You could easily just replace the nuts or just use some loctite.
