...Then replace them with hex head bolts.

Yeah, I wanted to ask someone about that...is that the hot tip, replace them with hex heads?
Thanks, for the info.
Anyone know how to pull the flanges from the diff? As long as I'm buying bolts I may as well push those studs out and replace them with the 17mm bolts. Make this the last time I do it the hard way <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />. I'll start a new thread for that.

Knock them out with a hammer.

I was able to get the bolts for the hubs at NAPA; they were the flanged type that came on the older Toyotas. I do not know 17 mm bolts you are talking about. If it is the ones that hold the CV's to the stub shafts those are not 17 mm, you do not measure by what size wrench it takes but the dia. of the threaded portion of the bolt.

Here is a great place to get Metric hardware:
