Re: Wheel cylinder bolt oddity

That is odd. I expect that the wheel cylinder bores are the same diameter?

They are indeed. I wonder if the fact that this truck has power assisted steering there is more stress put on the left spindle necessitating a bigger bolt??

Is the spindle beefier? Maybe we can reverse engineer it!
