Will this CV Joint Bolt Set fit my VW Bus or Vanagon?

Yes, this CV Joint Bolt Set (Pack of 6) is designed specifically for 1968-79 VW Buses and all 1980-91 2WD & Syncro Vanagons, regardless of whether your vehicle has an automatic or manual transmission. Please confirm your vehicle's year and model to ensure compatibility. For best results and safety, always use the complete set of six bolts per CV joint as recommended.

How many bolts do I need to replace a CV joint on my vintage VW, and what else should I order?

Each CV joint requires six of these M8 x 48mm, 12-point bolts for proper installation. This set provides exactly the right quantity for replacing one CV joint. For a complete job, be sure to also purchase new serrated washers (sold separately), as they are essential for maintaining the correct torque and safety during installation. Don’t forget to order a 12-point bit to fit these bolts if you don’t already have one.

Do I need any special tools or installation advice when replacing CV joint bolts?

Yes, you'll need a 12-point bit to tighten these polygon head bolts correctly. We also strongly recommend always replacing the serrated washers whenever you install new CV joint bolts—this maintains correct torque and ensures your axle joints stay secure. Remove any old, stripped, or damaged bolts and washers before installing the new set. Following these steps will help you achieve a safe and lasting repair.

Si les boulons de cardan existants sont striés, endommagés et pleins de saleté, remplacez-les par des neufs et facilitez ainsi l’installation de l’essieu. Vendus par lot de 6.

Caractéristiques : Ces boulons d’essieu sont de type M8 x 48 mm, avec une tête polygonale à 12 pans. Serrer à 33 pi-lb.

Compatibilité : Bus 1968-79, tous les Vanagon 2 roues motrices et Syncro 1980-91. 6 boulons requis par cardan.

CV Bolts -Still Waiting

Had to get the van back on the road so I sourced triple square bolts from another supplier. My GW order was shipped USPS and was sent through North Carolina to Tennessee to Georgia. I could have peddled my bike from the Bay Area to GW and back with my bolts by now.

We're sorry to see that USPS sent your package on the scenic route to get to you, but it looks like it has been delivered now. If you no longer need the bolt set, you can definitely return it for a merchandise refund. Thanks so much for the feedback!
