Hello,
I will be replacing my subframe bushings and possibly the subframe bushing
bolts on my 1992 SHO. Ibve seen the SHOtime FAQ writeup on bushing options,
and the specs call for M12 x 1.5 x 100mm  bolts with 10.9 strength.
However, the Ford dealer has the specs as M12 x 1.75 x 112 mm bolts, so the
thread pitch differs.  Most industrial fastener places have the 1.5 thread
pitch up to a maximum length of  50mm, while the 1.75s are at 110mm and 120mm.
Ibm thinking the 1.5 is a typo that should be 1.75.
Can anyone confirm the correct thread pitch?
Thanks!
