Just to confuse you further, they aren't really bolts, they're hex head cap screws. A bolt always has a nut on the other end. If it goes into a threaded hole, it's a screw. This is helpful to know if you ever need to get one from a company that specializes in fasteners.
Re: [MBZ] picturing a banjo bolt
I have more VW bolts than I can shake a finger at. If you need, I can supply by the wheel load. They are much the same as the steel wheel bolts, but have the silly VW markings on them.

Re: [MBZ] picturing a banjo bolt
Yeah, Yeah. Most American cars have studs in the wheel hubs and the wheel is held by LUG NUTS, correct? In order to confuse you all, I called the stud a lug. Rhymed better too.

Thanks for the photo. I am familiar with that bolt but still don't see a bleepin' banjo. Then again, I have a pallid sense of imagination.

The thing the bolt goes in is called a banjo fitting. The part that goes around the bolt is the body of the banjo, the part that goes in the hose is the neck of the banjo. The bolt just looks like a hollow bolt with crossdrilled holes in it.
Re: [MBZ] picturing a banjo bolt
I don't either, to be honest. I thought I knew what a banjo bolt was, until the emphasis on the banjo part...so I googled an image to be sure. It is what I thought, but I too fail to get the banjo part...maybe need to google an image of a banjo and look at it for a long time till I see the light... :-) Chris andrew strasfogel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks for the photo.

Re: [MBZ] picturing a banjo bolt
You do know what a banjo is don't you? Round flat thing with a tight drumhead and a neck with strings? The banjo fitting is a round device with a large hole in the center and a fitting on the side -- looks like a banjo (or a lolipop with a hole in it). The hose for whatever goes on the side, the bolt is hollow with a hole drilled at a right angle into the hollow. Take two aluminum or copper washers to seal. Peter
Re: [MBZ] picturing a banjo bolt
I much prefer the name lollipop bolt. I think I'll use that from now on and try to get it established. ;) On 12/12/05, Peter Frederick [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: You do know what a banjo is don't you?
