2G Hub Mounting Bolt size

[WisconsinMonSTAR]

Hello! I'm not sure if this is in the correct forum, if not, move it. For the past few days, I have been struggling to find a replacement bolt for mounting a front hub assembly on a 2g AWD. I searched and had no luck, I found a thread on DSMtalk inquiring about the bolt specification. It is a fairly specific bolt, and this thread is here just for anyone else in the future who has the same problem. I wanted to reply on the other website, but was not allowed to. (I noticed that another person was viewing the forum as a guest, so hopefully that person finds their way to this thread if they are trying to find this bolt as well).

Enough chit chat.

The hub mounting bolt for a 2g AWD front hub is:

M12×1.25, 45mm long, partial thread, flanged head. Part #MU140016 at mitsubishi or chrysler. The bolt ran me $4.82 at the local dealer, online they can be had for ~$5.

Made this thread to help anyone else who cannot find this bolt. I tried every local hardware store, fastenal, American Bolt Corp. Had no luck at all. Found the dealer part # and was able to find multiple sources for it.

Again, if this has already been covered, or is in the wrong forum, feel free to handle it accordingly.

Not a flange head but if it really bothers somebody, get a slightly longer one and run a washer underneath it.
