I need to go to the jy to get a new hub bolt cuz I snapped one of mine. Are they the same throughout all XJs? Would one from a ZJ work if I can't find an XJ?

 

Bolt to hold the hub assembly to knuckle or lug stud? The latter are not even all the same for all XJ; depends on if you have early, composite rotor (??-mid '99), or cast rotor (mid-99 up) brakes. The former you should be able to take a good one to a good hardware store and get a shiny new one. Lug studs should be a FLAPS item. (a good FLAPS will also have pik-a-nut assortment with the correct bolts for hub to knuckle bolts)

 

The bolt to hold the hub assembly.

I wouldn't know what to look for at a hardware store cuz the bolt is broken inside the threads. The place I took my xj to said if I had my own replacement part it would be a lot cheaper and take less time to fix so I saw an older xj and some zjs at the jy but don't know if the bolt will be the same or not?

 

How about taking one of the good ones out and with you to the hardware store?

 

Can I take it out without jacking up my jeep?

 

Here's a pic of the hub to knucle bolt for the 97-01 XJ. The dealer has them.

 

Holy smokes!! Can't ask for anything better than that.

 

youre a beast! thank you that helps a lot.

and for future notice for everyone else. no hardware store has the part so either JY or dealership it is!

 

You can also order these on the web Quadratec has them for $3.99 plus shipping. If you can wait.

There may be other places that have these.

 

awesome! thanks for post, ZJ bolts are the same.

 

When I changed my hub bearing units I bought six new bolts from the dealership (I'm a Chrysler retiree so I get a good discount). I thought I would scan one of the bolts and add the dimensions, etc., so I could share the info with other Heepsters...I mean...Jeepsters.

 

quadratec is awesome. 3 bolts from dealer was 21 dollars. in stock at mine.
