Bolt with round head for front spindle | The De Tomaso Forums

stevebuchananMember

The front spindles are assembled with three bolts and one of them has a round head. Where is the one with the round head installed? It is number 42 in the drawing below.

Thanks. I found that posting but it is somewhat inconclusive. However, I found another drawing that shows its location as you see below. I also sent a photo of my assembled spindle to Wilkinson and he confirmed the bolt is in the correct location.

wonder why round head?

I sort of see the lower two make the solid connection and carry load, the top just keeping the face closed .
