The three nissan dealerships I have been too cant seem to find ANY differential bolts (the front ones) in their stupid computers. I've had them searching for S14 vlsd differential bolts and no matter what, they cant find them. The only place I had some mild luck was with Courtesy Nissan, who at least found S14 bolts, but there was no difference in the part numbers for open or VLSD, which worried me. Because of this, I've decided to just find them at the hardware store. However, I cant find another bolt that will thread into the stock location and I long since lost the original bolts, does anyone know what the thread pitch is? I think the size is M12 and I can figure out the length just fine on my own, I JUST need to know the thread pitch if someone can help. Thanks!

you wont find that pitch in any hardware store. Go and get the front bolts of a J30. It should work if it has the bearings with rubber around the hole on the diff.

Hmmm, but I know people that HAVE gotten them at hardware stores...TSC might have em' I'll keep the J30 option in mind though.
