    Hi,

    did anyone got a list of all screws needed on the late 348 / 355 suspensions? I mean those who hold the suspension arms in the forks and the longer ones who hold the hub f.e.
    I want to make them all new if i change the bushes and repaint the suspension. A list would be very helpfull that i can order those befor i start the disassembly.

    Check Eurospares website. They'll have a chart. Or Ricambi.

    Yes i know eurospares but they dont list the type of screw. I dont like to buy them from ferrari. I dont need the ferrari logo to be on the top of the screw and pay 10 times more then a similar screw without the horse would cost.
    I'm looking for a list like this

    10x M10 x 85mm
    6x M12 x 60mm
    .
    .
    .


    Than i could order them befor i start disassembling and have them all ready. Otherwise i would have to messure each screw during disassembly and then order them and cant put it back together on the same day.

    Somewhere in Ferrarichat I have read, that Eurospares sold screws without the Ferrari logo ... for a price I would expect a Ferrari logo on the top of the screw:)

    Just make sure your replacements match exactly. Not only do the lenght, width and threads have to be correct, but the metalurgy must be the same: how it was heat treated etc. You can't just use general screws from a hardware store. Suspension fittings have a specified tensile strenght and are rust proofed with more than cheap Zinc plating. We don't want to to be blasting 'round a corner and have something vital collapse or.break.

    Yes ofcorse it should be a quality screw and not some 4.8 from the hardwarestore :D
    In germany everything is restricted and controlled so a 10.9 screw with rust protection will outperforme a italien screw or is atleast of the same quality. Normaly every other manufacturer dont make a secret out of it and just tell what screw is needed only ferrari put his logo on the screw and make a secret out of it to earn more money :D Thats no rocket sience.

    @Flat-12 , if thats true they make some extra money order a industrial screw for 10cent and sell it for much more as "mystical ferrari screw" :D
